TWITTER UPDATE: William Daniels 'All For Creative Interpretation' in HAMILTON'S Treatment of John Adams

As reported last night on BroadwayWorld, Hamilton's author/star Lin-Manuel Miranda humorously reacted with concern when Broadway legend William Daniels, originator of the role of John Adams in the musical 1776, posted on Twitter that he was looking forward to seeing his new musical.

Adams was not highly regarded by Alexander Hamilton and at one point in the show the title character expresses his distain with a twisted reference to 1776's score.

But, as expected, William Daniels loves a good story and knows that the Founding Fathers portrayed by both he and Miranda fought for freedom of artistic expression.

But perhaps Miranda should have a gift barrel of saltpeter around, just in case.

HAMILTON recently opened at the Richard Rodgers Theatre. HAMILTON has book, music and lyrics by Tony and Grammy Award-winning composer Lin Manuel Miranda, who also plays the title role. The musical is directed byThomas Kail, with choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler and music direction and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire. "HAMILTON" is inspired by Ron Chernow's biography "Alexander Hamilton."

HAMILTON, which recently transferred to Broadway following a sold-out run at The Public Theater in NYC, is the acclaimed new musical about the scrappy young immigrant Alexander Hamilton, the $10 Founding Father who forever changed America with his revolutionary ideas and actions. During his life cut too short, he served as George Washington's chief aide, was the first Treasury Secretary, a loving husband and father, despised by his fellow Founding Fathers and shot to death by Aaron Burr in their legendary duel.
