Pierre Arditi’s health is worrying. On September 27, the 78-year-old actor felt unwell while he was on stage at the theater. Starring in a new play called Lapin, in which he opposite Muriel Robin, the actor had in fact been the victim of vagal discomfort. Thanks to the rapid intervention of Muriel Robin, Pierre Arditi was taken care of by the firefighters while the room was urgently evacuated.
Faced with general concern, the actor spoke on the BFMTV channel. “I had vagal discomfort and hypoglycemia. Obviously, I lost track but there was no stroke. It’s over, I’m going to rest for five days and I’ll start playing again on Wednesday. It’s okay, it’s just fatigue. I am no longer a partridge of the year, age comes into play.” he assured. At the same time, Samuel Benchetrit who is none other than the director of the play had also made a reassuring statement. “Pierre will stop for as long as necessary. He has to take exams and rest. He’s tired but he’s fine.”
However, on October 11, Pierre Arditi, who had returned to the theater, obviously a little too quickly, was forced to cancel a performance at the last minute due to fatigue. Something to intrigue his fans again. Afterwards, the Édouard VII theater has announced that it will have to cancel all performances of the play until Wednesday November 8, 2023. Spectators will have the option of getting a refund or postponing their visit to a later date.
And today it is the turn of his wife Évelyne Bouix to make a statement in the columns of Figaro. “He resumed too soon, he was in too much of a hurry to resume. In addition, he had neither eaten breakfast nor lunch. He must remain calm“. We note that the 78-year-old actor will also have to cancel the promotion of the TV film Clemenceau, the strength to love by Lorraine Lévy, which will appear very soon on France 2.
