Ailing J. Harrison Ghee Won’t Return To ‘Oh, Mary!’ Tour; John-Andrew Morrison Will Continue In Role

J. Harrison Ghee will not return to the touring production of *Oh, Mary!* after taking medical leave on doctors’ orders. The Tony-winning actor is receiving treatment for kidney disease and is stepping away to focus on their health, with the production’s support.

John-Andrew Morrison will continue playing Mary’s Husband for the rest of the tour’s first year; Ghee had been expected back on 1 November. Morrison, a 2022 Tony nominee, performs alongside Wesley Taylor, Pooya Mohseni, Michael Lepore and Alaska Thunderf*ck. The comedy opened on Broadway in July 2024, and producers say they will announce casting beyond the tour’s first-year anniversary in January in the coming weeks.
