‘Wicked’ Cancels Weekend Shows Due To COVID Test Results And Scheduled Absences

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — “Wicked” is the latest Broadway production to cancel performances because of COVID.

First, Saturday’s 8 p.m. show was canceled. Then, Sunday’s 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. shows were too.

A post on the “Wicked” Twitter account blamed positive COVID-19 test results combined with previously scheduled absences.

All tickets are being refunded. Most Broadway shows are not open Mondays, so the next scheduled performance is 7 p.m. Tuesday.
