Matthew Broderick tested positive for COVID-19 just prior to the April 5 performance of “Plaza Suite,” producers announced Tuesday evening.

Michael McGrath will go on in Broderick’s role. Sarah Jessica Parker continues to test negative and will perform this evening, according to a statement from the production.

This development comes along with a slew of cancellations and COVID-19 case announcements from productions.

“Macbeth” has extended [its hiatus](https://broadwaynews.com/2022/04/03/daniel-craig-tests-positive-for-covid-19-macbeth-cancels-perofrmances-through-april-8/?ref=broadwaynews.com) by two days, now expecting to resume on April 11\. The production announced last week that Daniel Craig and “a limited number” of other company members tested positive.

Off-Broadway, the Public Theater canceled its Tuesday performance of “Suffs” after announcing that several company members, including composer, writer and star Shaina Taub, had contracted the coronavirus.
