Candace Bushnell is hitting pause on sex in the city.
Producers of the “Sex and the City” author’s one-woman show, “Is There Still Sex in the City?,” announced on Wednesday that the show has been forced to shut down after Bushnell tested positive for COVID-19.
“We are so grateful to Candace and the full team behind ‘Is There Still Sex In The City?’ who have brought this show to life,” said producer Marc Johnston in a statement.
“We look forward to bringing the production back to New York at a safer time, as well as sending Candace around the world to tell the true story of the OG Carrie Bradshaw when it is safe to do so.”
“Is There Still Sex in the City?” officially opened on Dec. 7, 2021 at the Daryl Roth Theatre and had its final performance on Dec. 21.
Page Six reported that Bushnell celebrated her 63rd birthday with a surprise on stage during a preview of her show prior to its official launch.
A spy told us director Lorin Latarro and Bushnell’s two poodles, Pepper and Prancer, joined her on stage with a cake that read “Happy Birthday Candace! Our Star!”
Bushnell was also gifted a pair of Hangisi Manolo Blahnik shoes in gold with jeweled buckles from her close pal Brooke Shields.
“Brooke wasn’t there,” explained the spy, “but she sent the shoes and a card that read ‘Nobody can fill your shoes.’”
The audience — which included “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Teresa Giudice — sang “Happy Birthday,” added the attendee.
Bushnell’s show is based on her 2019 book of the same title, and tracks her Connecticut upbringing to her divorce and beyond.
