Gezen, who suddenly fell ill after a spectator came on stage and argued with the crew, was rushed to the hospital. Hundreds of people, disappointed by the cancellation of the play, reacted by booing the actors on stage.

The performance of 'Gırgıriye Musical,' which brings the unforgettable works of Yeşilçam to the stage and has been eagerly awaited, was plunged into chaos before it even began tonight.

EVERYTHING STARTED WITH THE REACTION OF AN AUDIENCE MEMBER WHO WENT ON STAGE

It was learned that Müjdat Gezen suddenly fell ill after tensions escalated with an audience member who went on stage, saying they could not watch the play clearly. Following Gezen's health condition, the play was also forced to be canceled.
THE APOLOGY FROM THE ACTORS ON STAGE DID NOT LOWER THE TENSION
The actors who took the stage gave the sad news to the audience, stating, "Unfortunately, due to the unpleasant incident, our teacher has become a bit unwell. We apologize deeply, but we will not be able to continue." However, the disappointment in the hall quickly turned into anger. Hundreds of people who bought tickets to watch the show booed and protested the actors on stage.
In footage shared on social media, it was seen that the actors, in an attempt to quell the reactions, promised compensation with the words, "We are very sorry. Please contact the places where you bought your tickets. We will hold a special performance for you within this week."
THE FIRST IMAGE FROM THE HOSPITAL ARRIVED
