Herringbone Misfortune
The first performance of the show Roger directed for the Williamstown Theatre Festival didn't go too well last night. B.D. Wong, performing the one-man musical "Herringbone" gored his right thigh on a piano bench after about 30 minutes. He had to be taken to hospital and the show was called off.
As artistic director and director Roger addressed the audience from the stage after Wong left. "It's actually an auspicious opening to the season because we have an actor who's an actual human being and brave enough to admit he has to go to hospital . And I think we should applaud that." He continued, joking, "I could read you some sonnets."
Wong seems to be doing okay now, the show will go on again tonight.
