Shonda Rhimes is speaking out to defend Netflix’s decision to file a lawsuit against the creators of The Unofficial Bridgerton Musical.

Abigail Barlow and Emily Bear‘s project began as a TikTok musical and grew into an actual album, which went on to win the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album.

While Netflix appears to have supported the project in the early stages, the streamer objected to Barlow & Bear mounting a live stage version of the musical. The Unofficial Bridgerton Musical Album Live in Concert was performed at the historic Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. this past week with a cast that included big names from Broadway.

Variety wrote that “the stage show reportedly featured more than a dozen songs that involved exactly copied dialogue, character traits, expression and other elements from Bridgerton.”

Shonda, who is the executive producer behind Bridgerton, has released a statement to explain why Netflix is suing the team. Many fans have expressed disdain at Netflix for filing the lawsuit.
