In a lengthy Instagram post Friday evening, Bush said she was “gutted” that her time on the stage in London came to an early end. In June, other members of the company caught and recovered from the virus, but Bush was not as lucky.
Bush went on to thank her co-stars and the rest of the “incredible” company who became like family to her. “From ensuring I made it through shows once things got dicey with everything from medicine to flat sodas hidden backstage — even packing my feverish body in ice packs from head to toe on more than one night — you made it less terrifying to be struggling thousands of miles from my home & my family,” she wrote.
After thanking her fans, including a special nod to those who traveled abroad to see her perform, Bush ended her message on a thoughtful note.
“I’m sad. Happy. Immensely grateful,” she wrote. “There is no greater creative experience than the stage. I miss it madly. I love it deeply. I cannot wait for the next one.”
“It’s a total dream come true! I’ve loved the show since I first saw it,“Bridge wrote on Instagram Friday. “It’s an honour to be making my West End debut on such a clever, suspense-filled production.”

The play marked Bush’s professional theater debut and came after her latest CBS show,Good Sam, was canceled after one season. In an interview withBroadway World, Bush said it was her husbandGrant Hugheswho told her she needed to star in2:22 A Ghost Story. He saw the play’s brief production in Los Angeles, which Bush missed because she was under the weather.
“Having read the script, I was so excited about it, because it’s truly one of the best things I’ve read in years,” Bush told the outlet. “Danny has written such a beautiful play - it’s layered, and it’s sharp and it’s not too verbose, and there’s nothing undeveloped, it’s really dynamic. And so I said yes!”
