Mia Farrow Exits Broadway's 'The Roommate' Due to COVID

The 79-year-old actress's departure halts performances, with Marsha Mason stepping in temporarily.

Mia Farrow tested positive for COVID, leading to her abrupt exit from the Broadway play 'The Roommate.'
Performances were canceled on Saturday, but resumed Sunday with associate director Marsha Mason filling in for Farrow.
Mason, who stepped in with script in hand, received standing ovations and praised the audience's support.
The show, co-starring Patti LuPone, opened last Thursday and follows the story of two unlikely roommates.
It remains unclear if Farrow will return, with Mason expected to perform again on Tuesday night.
