The announcement of a permanent replacement is expected next week.

Ryan is the original Lydia understudy of Beetlejuice. Her other credits include Broadway's Fun Home and the national tour of Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas!

Beetlejuice began previews on March 28, 2019 and officially opened on April 25. As previously announced, the musical will play its final performance at the Winter Garden Theatre on June 6.
