The team behind an unofficial `Bridgerton` musical has been sued for infringement by Netflix in a Washington, DC US District Court. According to Variety, Abigail Barlow and Emily Bear, the signwriting team behind the project, initially developed the musical on social media. The duo went on to score the No. 1 slot on iTunes US pop charts and even won a Grammy this year in the category of best musical theatre album.
Netflix has alleged that it made "repeated objections" against the team as they planned to mount a live stage show of the project. `The Unofficial Bridgerton Musical Album Live in Concert` performed at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC earlier this week, selling out the venue with ticket prices that ranged up to USD 149. The stage show reportedly featured more than a dozen songs that involved exactly copied dialogue, character traits, expression and other elements from `Bridgerton`.
