DALLAS — The McAllen church that staged two unauthorized performances of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s musical "Hamilton" has apologized and will pay an unspecified amount in damages.
The Door Christian Fellowship Ministries, a nondenominational church in the border city, posted a statement on its Instagram account on Tuesday morning, acknowledging that it “did not ask for, or receive, a license from the producers or creators of Hamilton to produce, stage, replicate or alter any part of Hamilton; nor did we seek prior permission to alter Lin-Manuel Miranda’s work by changing the music, the lyrics, deleting songs, and adding dialogue.”
The church also apologized to Miranda, the musical’s producers and others who contributed to "Hamilton."
