'Schitt's Creek' farewell tour canceled due to COVID-19 concerns

Aug. 21 (UPI) -- Eugene Levy announced on Twitter that the Schitt's Creek: The Farewell tour has been canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Eugene Levy and his son, Dan Levy, co-starred in the Emmy-winning sitcom, which ran for six seasons.

They had scheduled visits to several North American towns to talk to fans about the show, but the tour was postponed because of the pandemic.

The duo decided to cancel the engagements due to the recent rise in COVID-19 cases.

"We're so sorry to be missing you, and we will continue to try to find a way to see you in the future," the elder Levy said in a statement.

Tickets will be refunded at the point of purchase.

The Levys' co-stars Tim Rozon and Sarah Levy can now be seen in the Syfy series, SurrealEstate, while Emily Hampshire stars in Epix's Chapelwaite and Annie Murphy is the lead in Kevin Can [Expletive] Himself.
