Mirvish announced Wednesday that the pandemic-plagued touring production will no longer return to Toronto this summer.

The 50th anniversary revival of the rock opera played several performances at the Princess of Wales Theatre in late 2021 before the show was shuttered by the emergence of Omicron variant of COVID-19.

Mirvish previously announced that the production would fulfil the rest of its run in August at the Royal Alexandra Theatre.

The theatre company says “unforeseen logistical and scheduling conflicts” have thwarted those plans.

Mirvish says all ticket holders will be contacted.
