Broadway Covid Cancellations – An Updated List

Posted on

Disney’s Aladdin, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child and Jagged Little Pill joined Broadway’s Covid cancellation roster over the weekend, bringing the number of productions missing the weekend shows due to the surge to eight.

Broadway currently has 32 shows in production. The recent spate of performance cancellations has not yet prompted any permanent closings, and the Broadway League has indicated it is not currently considering an industry-wide shutdown. (Two shows – Company and Thoughts of a Colored Man, canceled performances over the weekend due to non-Covid illness among cast, a possible indication that understudies are spread pretty thin these days; Company is expected to resume Monday, Dec. 20; Thoughts of A Colored Man on Tues., Dec. 21.)
