Vanessa Redgrave canceled a performance after the unexpected death of her daughter Natasha Richardson .

Redgrave's was set to star in the one-woman show, The Year of Magical Thinking, on April 27 at New York City's Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine, a rep for the church confirms to Usmagazine.com.

The play is based on Joan Didion's heart-wrenching memoir about the death of her husband and daughter.

"It's postponed and we don't have a date yet," the rep, Jonathan Korzen, tells Us.

Richardson was laid to rest Sunday afternoon in Millbrook, N.Y., where she wed actor Liam Neeson and raised their two sons.

She died March 18 of internal brain bleeding after suffering a head injury during a skiing accident in Canada.

On Friday, her family and friends -- including Diane Sawyer, Matthew Modine and Uma Thurman , among others -- paid their respects at a private wake at the American Irish Historical Society in NYC.

    I hope that Vanessa takes all the time that she needs to grieve as she should. I know we are all just devastated and we were not her Mother. You and the whole family are in my thoughts and prayers.
