Rob Ford the Musical: Show will go on

Producers of Rob Ford the Musical: Birth of a Ford Nation have no plans to adapt or delay the show at this time, despite Ford's decision to drop out of the mayoral race to focus on his health.

Rob Ford the Musical: Birth of a Ford Nation to open as planned

It seems the old adage 'the show must go on' is now applicable to a Toronto musical about Mayor Rob Ford.

Rob Ford the Musical: Birth of a Ford Nationwill open as scheduled on Thursday Sept.18at Toronto's Factory Theatre.

This comes after news that the mayor is withdrawing from the mayoralty race to focus on his health.

MayorFord is in hospital with what doctors are describing as an abdominal tumour.

The producers of the show issued a statement through a publicist Friday.

"The producers of the show would prefer not to comment on Mayor Fords recent private health issuesbut at this time, there are no current plans to adapt the show. The producers wish him and his family well during this time."
