Two
days after Matthew Broderick was sidelined from the Broadway play "Plaza
Suite" because he tested positive for Covid-19, his wife and costar
Sarah Jessica Parker has tested positive as well.
Performance
of the play have been canceled through Sunday, according to a statement Friday on the show's official Twitter account,
which also announced Parker's diagnosis on Thursday.
"Everyone
wishes Matthew and Sarah Jessica a speedy recovery," Friday's statement
said.
Ticket
holders were directed how to receive a refund or reschedule for a future date.
The
show's producers offered no further details about when the show might return,
saying only that news about future performances "will be announced
shortly."
The
revival of the classic 1968 Neil Simon play was currently slated to run through
late June. But to make up for the canceled shows the producers announced Friday
they've extended "Plaza Suite's" run through July 1.
After
Broderick's positive test was announced his understudy, Michael McGrath, stepped in for him -- opposite Parker -- for Tuesday's
and Wednesday's shows.
Broderick
and Parker portray three different pairs of guests at New York City's famed
Plaza Hotel in the three-act comedy.
