Is this the most bizarre cast change announcement ever? A week after pulling out of the ROH's Robert le diable due to illness, Marina Poplavskaya is now back in again.
According to the ROH:
"Marina felt that she had to withdraw from Robert le diable due to a medical condition and on the advice of her doctor. She wanted to make the decision swiftly in order to accommodate the difficult task of finding a replacement as early as possible.
However, after further consultations and examinations, she has been advised that it will be possible for her to continue with the rehearsals and performances of Robert le diable after all without any risk, and that any necessary treatment can carry on meanwhile or be postponed."
