EAGAN, MN — Eagan Broadway star Laura Osnes denied being fired from one-night production "Crazy For You," and wrote in an Instagram post that she quit the show, responding to a report by The New York Post. Osnes wrote that she was informed that Guild Hall's policies had changed and that she would now need proof of vaccination to participate in the show. "I was disappointed but responded that I would have to withdraw, as I have not yet gotten the vaccine," she wrote. The New York Post also reported that a co-star "pressed" Osnes to get vaccinated due to him having kids at home, which Osnes also denied. The report also said that the venue would require staff and performers to be vaccinated or show a negative COVID test, but Osnes said she was never given the option to show a negative COVID test. "I would have tested in a heartbeat-something I have been doing for months and will continue to do so in order to keep working safely," she wrote. You can read the rest of Osnes' post here.
