Kara Lindsay Reveals Cancer Diagnosis

Lindsay most recently starred in Once Upon a Mattress on Broadway.

By: Feb. 09, 2025

Broadway veteran Kara Lindsay shared yesterday that she was diagnosed with Stage 2 Brast Cancer and has been undergoing chemotherapy. "Before I go further, I’m going to be ok. I feel very lucky that I caught this early and I will be on the other side of this very soon," she writes. "I have no hair, but I still have my spirit and my joy. I’m trying to find as much light in this dark time as possible"

She writes in a subsequent post: "Thank you all for sending your support and love! It means so much. Cancer sucks. And it affects so many of us either directly or indirectly. I still have more to do on this road to recovery. I can’t wait for it all to be behind me. For now, the only thing I have control over is how I walk through this. Walking through with my bald head held high!"
