Jackman’s holidays to halt ‘Oz’
- Share via
The show won’t go on while Hugh Jackman takes his vacation from “The Boy From Oz.”
The Broadway musical will shut down Feb. 1 to 6 and March 28 to April 2 while its star takes some time off, said Joe Perrotta, a spokesman for the show.
Jackman, who plays gay entertainer Peter Allen in the musical, hasn’t missed a performance since the show opened at the Imperial Theatre Oct. 16.
“The Boy From Oz” has been doing strong business at the Imperial, setting a house record there last week with a gross of $903,803. It was the third week in a row the musical has broken the house record.
