Usher Falls Ill, Misses Final Week in “Chicago”
Usher, who has been playing in the production since August 22, missed several shows Friday through
Monday last week (Oct. 2 to Oct. 6).
right Fans who lined the streets near the Ambassador Theater each night demanded refunds after
discovering his understudy would be performing. Usher’s doctor allegedly ordered him to be on bed
rest the remainder of the week - Wednesdays are his nights off anyway.
The singer was originally scheduled to perform through October 1, but extended his run until
October 14, which is also his birthday. Chicago has been sold-out for weeks and Usher is
reportedly the highest paid to play the role of "Billy" in Chicago of all time.
No word on whether he'll make up the sick days or if he will extend his run again.
