Jean Smart Out of CALL ME IZZY on Broadway Due to Knee Injury

Jean Smart, who is currently starring in the world premiere production of Call Me Izzy on Broadway, will be out of the show due to a knee injury. 

The official Instagram account for the show shared, "We look forward to having her back on stage as soon as she recovers." The role of Izzy will be performed by two-time Tony Award nominee Johanna Day from July 8 to July 11.

The 12-week limited engagement is now playing at Studio 54 through August 17, 2025. Written by Jamie Wax and directed by Sarna Lapine, Call Me Izzy  is a darkly comedic story about one woman in rural Louisiana who has a secret that is both her greatest gift and her only way out. It is a moving, tour de force portrait of a woman who resists being silenced by embracing her tenacity, humor, and fiery imagination.
