She added, “I’m really quiet right now and will probably continue to be quiet, just sort of taking all of this in and having a lot of feelings, as I do.”

Bareilles most recently starred in London’s production of the musical Waitress, a production that went dark March 13, several days prior to the general West End shutdown. Bareilles’ co-star, Gavin Creel, subsequently disclosed that he had mild symptoms though hadn’t been tested.
