Barry Manilow Pulls Out of Las Vegas Show Due to Bronchitis
Barry Manilow canceled his Saturday night performance at the International Theater at Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino. The cancellation followed his early exit from Friday's show and came two days after he returned from a six-week hiatus. A representative said he developed bronchitis; Manilow has been receiving treatment for lung cancer he disclosed last December.
Manilow’s Saturday concert at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino’s International Theater was called off. The move followed his early departure from Friday’s performance. It occurred only two days after he ended a six-week break and returned to the residency on Thursday.
A representative said bronchitis caused the cancellations. Manilow has also been undergoing treatment for lung cancer, which he revealed last December. A related report noted he intended to resume touring in June while making progress with that treatment.
Ticket-holders and Las Vegas visitors planning around the residency may be disappointed, and fans following Manilow’s health could feel concern. The Westgate and local entertainment schedule may face minor disruption, though the effect is likely limited to those with tickets or travel plans. The episode could also draw more attention to how performers balance recovery, treatment, and live commitments.
