A major theatre show has been cancelled for the fourth day running due to an outbreak of Covid-19 among the cast and crew. Ticketholders planning to watch The Book of Mormon at Manchester's Palace Theatre were told of the cancellation just two hours before this afternoon’s (December 17) matinee performance.
Matinee and evening performances on both Friday and Saturday have now been cancelled due to a ‘new spate of cases’. Shows were also cancelled on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings this week.
Theatre bosses - who say they have been working ‘nonstop to try and get the show on’ - posted details of the changes on social media.
