In what is expected to be the first of many such announcements by shows unable to hold out financially through the shutdown of live performance venues, the producers of Martin McDonagh'sFollowing acclaimed earlier runs at London's Royal Court Theatre and off-Broadway's Atlantic Theater Company, the production began previews Feb. 28 in its Broadway transfer at the John Golden Theatre and was scheduled to open March 19 in a limited engagement through July 18.
"Because of the current health crisis, which has created circumstances beyond our control, it is with deep regret that we are not able to resume performances of," said lead producers Robert Fox, Jean Doumanian, Elizabeth I. McCann and Craig Balsam in a statement Friday.

McDonagh's corrosive dark comedy was considered among the frontrunners for best play at this year's Tony Awards. It centers on Harry Wade, the second-most-famous executioner in Britain, and is set primarily in his pub in Northern England in 1965, soon after the national abolition of capital punishment, when a shady stranger from London comes to call with dubious intentions.
