According to a video of the event, a sermon delivered to the audience compared homosexuality to drug addiction, CNN reported.
Per copyright law, churches do have some exemptions, but those do not include video, streaming or distribution outside of a service.The Dramatist Guild, which represents playwrights, also issued a statement condemning the unauthorized production.
Good for him. They bastardized it for freaky religious zealots.
I'll reserve my judgment until I see how much he's claiming in damages. That will say everything.
Ahhhh so he is a capitalist
Try as Mr Miranda has, Alexander Hamilton was a WHITE guy. So he has a claim on something he bastardized? Yea, right.
