Share

The mystery of Edwin Drood,” scheduled to open in March as the third show of the Center Theatre Group/Ahmanson’s season, has been canceled. According to Ahmanson artistic director Robert Fryer, funding for “Drood’s national tour, to be shared by the Ahmanson with the Kennedy Center and in-house producer Robert Garner of Center Attractions at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts, has fallen through.

No substitute booking has been selected as yet, which leaves the 1986-87 season four-show Ahmanson season two shows short. (The fourth and final show, due in May, also remains to be determined.)

Next on the Ahmanson schedule is Lauren Bacall in “Sweet Bird of Youth,” opening Dec. 5.
