[image-1]UPDATE [6/6]: The Goodman Theatre announced today that actor Stacy Keach suffered “a mild heart attack” during the opening night performance of his solo Hemingway show, Pamplona, May 30. The show was halted and the run subsequently canceled, but Goodman now says Keach is expected to recover, and that plans are under way to reschedule the production.
The stunned audience applauded before it filed out.
“Goodman Theatre had to unexpectedly halt this evening’s performance of Pamplona by Jim McGrath. The show’s star, Stacy Keach, had not been feeling well earlier in the day, but made the decision to go on with the performance. When it became clear midway through that Mr. Keach was struggling, Director Robert Falls took the stage and announced that the performance would conclude. Performances are expected to resume as scheduled.”
