#’The Music Man’ canceled after Hugh Jackman gets COVID-19

There will be no music for the Jackman.

Hugh Jackman’s Broadway production “The Music Man” has been postponed until Jan. 1 after he announced he contracted coronavirus. The actor won’t return until at least Jan. 6.

The 53-year-old tweeted his diagnosis on Tuesday alongside a short clip of himself wearing a mask.

“Just wanted you to hear it from me,” he wrote. “I tested positive for COVID. Mild symptoms and as soon as I’m cleared … looking forward to getting back to The Winter Garden! @MusicManBway.”

In the video, he reiterated his tweet, saying: “I just wanted you to hear it from me that I tested positive this morning for COVID,” Jackman said in a video posted to Twitter and Instagram. “My symptoms are like a cold. I have a scratchy throat and a bit of a runny nose, but I’m fine. And I’m just gonna do everything I can to get better ASAP. And as soon as I’m cleared, I’ll be back on stage, heading to River City.”

“Please stay safe,” the “X-Men” star continued. “Be healthy, be kind.”

Representatives for the show told EW that performances have been canceled through Jan. 1 and tickets can be refunded or exchanged.

Despite many Broadway shows being closed due to the surge in COVID-19 cases, Jackman couldn’t help but hype up his show earlier this month.

“I’ve just arrived at the theater, and it is our first preview tonight,” he shared in a video on Instagram on Dec. 20. “I don’t know how many months — years this date has been in my head, but it feels like a long time. I am just so grateful and so … ah … blessed to be here in this position and I am so excited to share this show with you all.”

On Dec. 24, his costar Sutton Foster became unavailable for the show’s fourth preview. Swing actor and understudy Kathy Voytko stepped in for the 46-year-old within an 8-hour notice.

“It’s not only happening here … but all over Broadway,” Jackman explained shortly after the preview, in footage captured by actress Katherine Winter. “This is a time we’ve never known. We’re in our fourth preview, we’re all just sort of learning so swings and understudies have not had a chance to learn.”
