Broadway superstar Laura Osnes has been let go from a Hamptons show because she refuses to be vaccinated against COVID-19.
Osnes — who shot to fame when she won the talent search show “Grease: You’re the One That I Want!” in 2008, and has gone on to have a heavyweight Broadway career — was set to perform in front of a star-studded audience for a one-night production of “Crazy For You” at the Guild Hall in East Hampton on August 29.
But the theater tells Page Six that it requires staff and performers to be vaccinated, or submit a negative COVID test.
Insiders additionally told The Post’s Michael Riedel that her co-star, Tony Yazbeck, pressed her on the matter because he said “he has two little kids at home.”
We’re told that’s when two-time Tony-nominee Osnes — who starred in the title role of the Broadway adaptation of “Cinderella” from 2013 to 2014 — revealed that she hadn’t been vaccinated, and announced that she doesn’t trust the jabs.
Osnes has described herself as a Christian conservative in interviews.
According to spies, she immediately got the hook and was replaced by Sierra Boggess, who played Ariel in the Broadway adaptation of the “Little Mermaid.”
What a disgrace!
