The day after a new malaise, during his play “Rabbit”, which caused him to be transported to the hospital in absolute emergency, Pierre Arditi wants to be reassuring with his public. In the Gala columns, he explains this week that if he would have “happily skipped this episode“, From now on “life has taken over”and after rest and re-evaluation of treatment, he wants to slow down, but he will not stop his profession.
“You must come immediately.”
In an interview with him, his wife of 38 years, Évelyne Bouix assures that she had “very, very scared”. And even more so when she received a call from Muriel Robin, two months ago, on September 21, 2023 telling her “You must come immediately.”. The actress, who shares the stage of the Édouard VII theater in Paris, said that she understood that something was up that day, when her colleague had started to stutter. “I asked for the curtain to come down,” she assured RTL.
Behind the scenes, she called the absentee, Évelyne Bouix, who had, as she told Gala “broken wrist” and came back “emergencies with a huge cast“. She who had “since he was tired this summer”didn’t expect that, she said, “It was violent”. And if she has “I was just afraid that he would be very ill“and that their life”be more complicated“, she can’t do anything.
Évelyne Bouix maintains: “He is above all a man of the theater, a man of the public. He likes people, he likes being on stage, even if he says he wants to do things with me. I was afraid he would be amputated.”
With Muriel Robin until January 6, 2024
It will therefore be on display in “Rabbit” until January 6, 2024, before continuing in February 2024 with readings at the Théâtre de la Pépinière and two plays which are already scheduled for its year 2025.
