Keep hearing reports that Ms. Redgrave has been out of DRIVING MISS DAISY. Is everything ok?

How long has she been out for?

I know she was out last Thursday. The box office said she was ill.

In cases such as this when the show is completely dependant on its stars to seel tickets, does Redgrave have an understudy, or do they cancel the show?

She has an understudy, but a lot of people opted for refunds. Two or three rows in front of me were almost completely empty.
