NEW YORK — A Broadway show led by “The White Lotus” star Carrie Coon canceled its preview before opening day due to an illness in the company, reports say.
The Wednesday, Jan. 7 show of Tracy Letts‘ “Bug,” was set to open Thursday, according to the play’s website.
Matinee ticket holders at the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre were told at intermission that the performance would not continue due to “unforeseen circumstances,” according to Deadline.
It’s unclear who is ill or what the illness is, but Deadline said the 6 p.m. opening night show is still intended to go on as planned.
The play is the Broadway premiere of Chicago’s Steppenwolf Theater Company’s critically-acclaimed 2021 run about an “unexpected and intense romance between a lonely waitress (Carrie Coon) and a mysterious drifter (Namir Smallwood),” according to the Manhattan Theatre Club.
The club calls the show a “sexy psychological thriller.”
Prior to Broadway, the show debuted in 1996 in London and was later produced off-Broadway in 2004, according to PEOPLE. It was also turned into a movie in 2006 with Michael Shannon, Ashley Judd and Harry Connick Jr.
Letts is known for his work on “Ford v. Ferrari,” “Ladybird” and, most recently, “A House of Dynamite.” He and Coon married in 2013.
Deadline reported that the cast is expected to remain the same. It will feature Carrie Coon as Agnes White; Namir Smallwood as Peter Evans; Randall Arney as Dr. Sweet; Jennifer Engstrom as R.C.; and Steve Key as Jerry Goss.
Creative credits go to Tracy Letts as the playwright; David Cromer as the director; Takeshi Kata for Scenic Design; Sarah Laux for Costume Design; Heather Gilbert for Lighting Design; Josh Schmidt for Sound Design, J. Jared Janas for Hair & Makeup Design; Gigi Buffington for Dialect & Vocal Coach; Marcus Watson as the Intimacy Coordinator & Fight Director; JC Clementz for Casting; Zoë Adams as the Associate Director; Christine D. Freeburg as the Production Stage Manager; and Amanda Michaels as the Stage Manager.
