SMASH and Broadway star Megan Hilty was set to play The Hippodrome, Leicester Square, in London for just 4 nights from Wednesday September 6th 2017. This morning, she shared the news that she won't be going on with the show, writing on Facebook that:

Dear UK Fans

I am deeply saddened that on doctors orders I have to cancel my trip to London this week. I have been looking forward to these shows for such a long time but unfortunately due to serious health issues my doctor has advised me to focus on my vocal health, and therefore I am unable to perform next week.

I'm hoping to reschedule these concerts at a time where I can give you 100%. I apologize from the bottom of my heart for the many inconveniences this will cause you, but I am so grateful for your understanding and I can't wait to get healthy and come sing for you in the near future.
