Actress Natalia Lobo suffered a decompensation on stage during the presentation of the play "Mirtha, the Myth," directed by José María Muscari in tribute to Mirtha Legrand. She was taken to the Mater Dei Sanatorium, where a cast was placed after suffering a wrist fracture.
In an interview with Pablo Montagna on Radio Rivadavia, Lobo recounted the moment she fell and broke her wrist. Despite the pain, she highlighted the quality of the play and José's work in directing: "The play is divine, what José put together is spectacular."
Currently, the actress is in the recovery process and is awaiting a consultation with a specialist scheduled for Wednesday, where it will be determined if surgery is necessary due to the severity of the fracture.
Despite the accident, Natalia Lobo expressed her desire to return to the play as soon as possible. Meanwhile, the cast will continue with the performances thanks to a reorganization of roles. Lobo, in her drive to move forward despite the circumstances, recalled the moment of the incident: "I realized instantly that I broke it, but I thought, ‘If Diego (Maradona) played with a swollen ankle, I will continue.’"
The actress explained that the accident occurred while performing a choreography on stage and that, despite trying, her body eventually gave in and she fainted. She emphasized the importance of Mirtha Legrand in Argentine culture and the great significance of this tribute in the play directed by Muscari.
Regarding her future participation, Lobo hopes to return to the play as soon as possible and will evaluate her condition to act again.
