Actor Breaks Hands Throughout Onstage Slap

That which was said to be an imitation slap grew to become a genuine smack last week in the Huntington Theatre Company's manufacture of "God of Carnage." Half an hour prior to the finish from the Jan. 14 matinee, Tony-Award-nominee Johanna Day, who plays Veronica, broke her hands when slapping cast member Stephen Bogardus throughout a scene. He wasn't hurt. A battle director had choreographed the scene, but a Huntington representative told Playbill.com, "Something simply went amiss this time around around."Day finished the performance after which visited a healthcare facility, where she was identified having a damaged bone in her own hands. The Jan. 14 evening performance was cancelled, and also the production started again shows the following day with modified fight choreography. Huntington's "God of Carnage" is scheduled to operate through February. 6. .
