Jonathan Bailey is the latest star to exit a West End revival of “Sunday in the Park With George” after Ariana Grande bowed out last month. The London show was set to be an opportunity for the “Wicked” stars to reunite live on stage with Bailey playing painter George Seurat while Grande starred as Dot and Marie. They previously co-starred in the double feature franchise as Fiyero and Glinda respectively.
I will be cheering them on as they continue with this production,” Bailey added. Grande revealed she was set to drop out of the Stephen Sondheim musical last month as she took “a step back from visibility” following the wrap of her “Eternal Sunshine” tour in London. Her decision came after the release of her latest music video, for “Petal,” prompted much discourse online about her physical health.
A rep for Empire Street Productions, who are producing “Sunday in the Park with George,” confirmed the show will still go on at the Barbican Centre in London.
