NEW YORK — Under doctors' order, James Gandolfini is giving his vocal cords a rest — so the Wednesday matinee performance of "God of Carnage" on Broadway was canceled.

Susanne Tighe, a spokeswoman for the production, says the former star of "The Sopranos" will return for the Wednesday evening performance of Yasmina Reza's comedy, which is now in previews. An official opening is set for March 22 at the Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre.

"God of Carnage" also stars Jeff Daniels, Hope Davis and Marcia Gay Harden.
