What changed
The announced 2027 Barbican run is off its original schedule after both named leads withdrew. That reverses the earlier position that the production would continue with replacement casting.
The flip side
Some headlines call the revival cancelled and others postponed. The producer’s narrower statement says it retains the rights “with a view” to presenting the show in 2028, so neither a new cast nor a firm 2028 opening is confirmed.
Update note: Original source-read briefing adds specific context and evidentiary limits beyond the short feed summary.
