Her gown is the only one that made me stop to see who she was. She looks wonderful.

Hamilton: US church apologies for modified rendition of hit musical
By Bernd Debusmann Jr
BBC News

A US church has apologised to Hamilton creator Lin Manuel Miranda for an unauthorised, Bible-themed rewrite of the popular musical.

The rendition from The Door church in McAllen, Texas changed Hamilton's lyrics to include references to Jesus and Christianity.

The changes were condemned by Mr Miranda, who earlier this month vowed to take legal action.

The church will now pay unspecified damages.

In addition to invoking Jesus Christ, the church's rendition added a scene in which Alexander Hamilton repents as well as a sermon inviting those "struggling" with substance abuse and homosexuality to turn to God for help.

Following the show earlier this month, the team behind the original production of Hamilton lodged a protest and filed a cease-and-desist letter. A spokesman for Hamilton also said that the production team "stands for tolerance, compassion, inclusivity and certainly LGBTQ rights".

Mr Miranda thanked those who informed him about the Texas play and said he would "let lawyers do their work".

In an Instagram post on Tuesday, the church acknowledged that it had never received permission to "produce, stage, replicate or alter" Hamilton.

"Our ministry will use this moment as a learning opportunity about protected artistic works and intellectual property," the statement added.

The church vowed to never perform the show again. It said it would destroy any recordings and images and pay unspecified damages.

A spokesman for Hamilton quoted by the New York Times said that the damages would be donated to the South Texas Equality Project, a coalition of organisations that supports the LGBTQ community and LGBTQ-friendly businesses in South Texas.

Hamilton, which made its debut in 2015, tells the story of US founding father Alexander Hamilton. The show - which also made its UK debut in London's West End in 2017 - has since won dozens of awards.

A filmed stage production of the show released by Disney+ in 2020 became one of the most-streamed films of the year.

…and yes, describing Bond’s life and work for the Crown in that Postwar period did afford Fleming some interesting observations and reflections on Britain and the world in those years.

Then of course there's this snark...

I don't think I even understood the article.
The Gaming World is such a separate universe.

Amazing just how long he's been doing it, and for so many movies/shows. Wonder how much is really left they good stretch the character for... although this is Star Wars

I gather that with new technology, they can reproduce his voice easily.
As long as he gets paid for it, I think it would be a good solution.
