Broadway's 'Chess' is making an early exit. The buzzy revival, starring Lea Michele, will close its curtains on June 21. This unexpected move comes as Michele was already set to depart the production. Industry insiders confirm the musical had plans to continue with Joanna 'JoJo' Levesque stepping into the lead role of Florence Vassy through September. Instead, the entire run is now cut short, leaving fans and theatergoers stunned by the sudden cancellation.
