Guest of Indulge On RTL, this January 10, comedian Gad Elmaleh confided in his sentence of having to cancel many of his performances for his last show.
His latest show resists the health crisis but Gad Elmaleh finds it very difficult to find the optimal conditions to play it. The 50-year-old comedian and comedian was once again forced to cancel dates for “Moreover”. This is due to the application of decided gauges in confined spaces bringing together spectators. Until further notice, it is no longer possible to give a performance in front of more than 2,000 seated people. This restrictive measure prompted the artist to completely review the organization of his French tour. In a press release posted online last Friday, he made it known that he was forced to cancel or postpone a large number of scheduled dates, in particular those set for the various Zéniths and Arenas. However, he will be on stage at the Palais des Sports in Paris, from February 8 to 26.
Gad Elmaleh does not understand the measure targeting seated performance venues
While he may have been able to save the furniture somehow, Gad Elmaleh is not at all happy with recent government announcements. Guest on Yves Calvi’s show, Indulge, on RTL, he thundered that for him these measures were “totally unfair”. And to develop: “It is totally unfair insofar as we have not yet proved that in theaters there were contamination problems. There have been tests that have been done. We did 70 shows in large venues, we never had a cluster problem or been contacted by the ARS (The Regional Health Agency, Editor’s note) “.
“We have to meet again, we have to laugh together”
He also splits a nice formula to indirectly ask the rulers to change their minds concerning the management of the situation. It thunders as follows: “We should try to prove that in theaters there is something good going on for our souls and our hearts. We talk about our bodies, but our minds, our souls, our hearts have to be appeased. we have to meet again, we have to get together, we have to laugh together, we have to sing together “. However, he also wants reason and concedes: “My fellow musicians at standing concerts are not going to be happy, but I understand when you are standing, when you take off the mask, when you jump in the air, when you kiss each other”. Before concluding : “But when you are seated, looking in the same direction, wearing a mask and being vaccinated, there is very little chance that you will be contaminated”.
