Sarah Jessica Parker, starring as Princess Winnifred in the Broadway revival of Once Upon A Mattress, fell victim to a bronchial infection this past weekend and missed three performances: Friday, Dec. 6 and Saturday Dec. 7.
The Friday show was cancelled, the Saturday shows featured understudy Janet Metz. A preview scheduled for tonight, Dec. 9, has been cancelled, though production spokesperson Suzanne Tighe told Playbill On-Line "schedules are always crazy during previews, especially around holiday time."
Another production spokesperson, Amy Jacobs, said that Parker expects to be back onstage Tuesday, Dec. 10.
