Tom was seen arriving at the theater for last-minute rehearsals on Friday morning and then covered his face as he left.
Fans will receive a link to redeem their tickets for a later date, and producers noted there is “limited availability.”
It is currently unknown whether the performances on Monday (May 13) and Tuesday (May 14) will go ahead as planned.
The delay will give Tom time to recover from his crippling injury, ready for the official opening night on Thursday, May 23.
Meanwhile, disappointed fans took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their frustration.
Some wrote: ‘This information is not found anywhere else. Considering I paid $1,300 to resell these tickets, my heart won’t hurt as much, but I also need to check the facts.’
“It’s going to be difficult trying to get everyone involved in other performances since the tickets are practically sold out.”
“Extremely unprofessional.”
