Following her knee injury, Jean Smart temporarily exits Call Me Izzy
According to an Instagram post from the production, a knee injury has taken Jean Smart out of Call Me Izzy at Studio 54 for the time being. In her place, two-time Tony nominated Johanna Day is stepping into the role through July 11. The Instagram post goes on to say "we look forward to having her back as soon as she recovers".
We wish Jean Smart a speedy and smooth recovery and hope to see her back on the stage soon.
Directed by Sarna Lapine and written by Jame Wax, this 12-week limited engagement at Studio 54 is a dark comedy story about Izzy, a woman in rural Louisiana who has a secret, one of which might just be her ticket out.
