The Sat. Jan. 25, 2:00 p.m. matinée performance of “The Outsiders” was canceled. Ticket-buyers have been instructed to contact their point of purchase for information about refunds and exchanges.

“There was a Con Edison power outage that prevented the show from going on,” a spokesperson for the production told Broadway News regarding the matinée’s cancellation. The 8:00 p.m. performance will proceed as planned.
