The 'Glee' star took over the lead role in the Broadway musical on Sept. 6.
Michele will return to the show on Sept. 20, according to the production.
Julie Benko, who has been slated to play the role of Fanny Brice on Thursday evenings, will perform in all shows through Sept. 18. Benko has been a standby in the production and played the role of Brice for several weeks in August before Michele began. “We are so thankful to the entire FUNNY GIRL company, including our standbys, understudies, swings and everyone working on the production for their remarkable commitment to keeping the show going and ensuring audiences have a great experience at every performance,” the production said in a statement.
