My ENT has officially advised me to take a three week medical vocal rest,” wrote Noblezada. “The truth is that this time to rest and heal is extremely essential for me. Not just for my voice but for my brain and my heart, which have been carrying the heavy burden of an injury for quite some time now. I cannot wait to reset back into a state of full health, mentally and vocally!”<\/p>\n

Noblezada will succeed current Daisy, Aisha Jackson<\/a>, who will play her final performance February 1. The actor\u00a0who will perform the role of Daisy February 5\u2013March 2 will be announced at a later date.
