The singer of “Savage (Remix)” had to leave the production midway, which marks her Broadway debut, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter.
Her representative, Didier Morais, stated, “During Tuesday night’s production, Megan started feeling very ill and was promptly transported to a local hospital, where her symptoms are currently being evaluated. We will share additional updates as more information becomes available.”
The specific illness and her condition remain unclear.

Playing the role of Zidler in “Moulin Rouge! The Musical,” her absence raises questions about how the show will proceed, Deadline reported.
