He sounded already as if he had a cold when he did the press conference.

Hope it is just a precautionary measure.

Get well soon, Hugh!

I'm devastated at not sharing my show w you tonight. For all Turks & Cannakale it's a very important night. Was to be very special for me.

From Wikipedia --

"In 1915, during the First World War, British Empire and France attempted to capture the Ottoman capital of İstanbul and secure a sea route to Russia. Known as The Gallipoli Campaign, or the Dardanelles Campaign, in Turkey it is referred to as the Battle of Çanakkale (Turkish: Çanakkale Savaşı), when during March 1915 when the Royal Navy failed to force the Dardanelles and suffered severe losses."

Historical footnotes for the people of Turkey, Great Britain, and Australia.

Perhaps Hugh's desire to visit and perform in Istanbul at this time may have been partly influenced by a desire to trace his historical roots?

Upset about this news. Thought he sounded in good voice from the clips I heard...crazy how that could happen. Hope condition doesn't impact future singing endeavors like Greatest Showman...A bit surprised to see Dr. Korovin still on the scene after her alleged involvement in Joan River's death.

WHAT?

[carouselkathy]

PLEASE CLARIFY. WHAT DO YOU MEAN, "ON THE SCENE"?

[suefb]

Hugh mentioned her by name in his tweet. I doubt she was there, but he apparently consulted her.

[chessie]

Scary. Hugh's pace has been so frenetic of late that I've wondered how he can handle it all. Let's hope this forced period of rest allows him time to heal completely.

Again, via BING translation -- an account of the first night performance written by the reviewer before the news that Hugh had to cancel the rest of the engagement for health reasons --

What is Hugh Jackman fan and there was like Broadway. The previous night, Challenging Performing Arts Center was full of haljand vindication. Cem Yilmaz, came with his Valet Paisa to the show. Saba Tümer's Jackman with jokes and laughter are heard 10 kilometers away. I can see celebrities include Hram, Ferhat Göçer, Demet Akbag, Joydeep and Tuba Ünsal had. Media and society out of her life, came to watch the important names, Jackman.

My most Ghraib outgoing; Jackman-footed liner with selfie çekenlerdi. I guess ' I was there ' not to put a photo to Instgram with this.

Jackman, demonstration of Turkish "Hello İstanbul, how are you?" he began. According to Turkish coffee and love beads she wore against, he said. "I haven't seen İstanbul has changed a lot," he said. The famous actor came to Turkey at 19 years ago.


DECLARATION OF LOVE TO HIS WIFE, HE

Jackman, ' What a Beautiful Day ' in the show begins with a song; ' Singin' in the Rain ' and ' Guys and Dolls ' a classic Broadway musical parts such as sang. ' Les Miserables ', mainly, but also songs from the movies he played them all tied to a story or memories.

Jackman's performance is not a classic Broadway show; a more personal and interactive shows. So interactive that; Jackman, the microphone, and even made a joke at youth-Ferhat that takes. Sitting in the front row and a pair of famous actors, are the talk of the town, the jokes flew in the air. The gentleman in the front row, showing his wife Jackman "Take everything!" (Take it) or something, he said. Of course it was a joke. Jackman, in some moments he's performed a standup. Add a woman called out on stage and danced. This woman; was not previously set and stage a small shock. The other women in the room under the envious glances, Jackman left arms himself.

The sexiest man in the world to watch the halls full of women, the second is his wife, Deborra-Lee jealousy attack to Jackman's Declaration of love at times that the Furness took place. Jackman; with his wife how you met, how he told me an amazing woman. Her song as a gift, she went, he kissed a hug. Deborra is a lucky woman.


MURAT BOZ GOSSIP

Deborra; a 60-year-old, one of the world's most sexy men Jackman from 13 years older than me. The couple had two children, adopted children, and they draw a super happy family portrait.

Like many women in the living room at Joydeep Deborra is obsessed with his age. Laughter, accompanied by "the moon does not have great too me Deborra?" I heard you said. Ms. March, I think you're an age but from that crispy Deborra, young, vivacious song anyone can compete.

Jackman also gave the secret of living happily in the show: ' Happy wife, happy life! ' Happy wife, happy life ' or ' your wife happy, you can convert them to say ' happy I guess.

Jackman on stage two songs with accompanying Bora Uzer, filled out with a natural English. I'm a share gossip: the idea of doing a Duet with Jackman, a Turkish singer at the last minute, advanced. Ago Bawah were taken to offer but Boz's throat is alleged to have turned down the offer for the inconvenience. If correct, this excuse is not very convincing to me. Those who knew him "the opportunity to share the stage with Boz, Jackman would not miss, probably English wasn't good enough," he says.

And two Aboriginal artist, show, regional instruments was accompanied with Jackman. Jackman; then for his country because of the harm they did to the aborigines, he apologized and that's from the audience and asked them to accompany apologize. To sum up the night before Turkey representing the audience was apologize to Aborigines.

Jackman; How is a versatile artist Oscar ceremony had already proven. We also had the opportunity to watch this amazing performance the previous night. 32-person Orchestra and dance with the team of approximately 2.5 hours onstage standing ovation at the end of the performance, the remaining Jackman.

' An Evening with Hugh Jackman ' show tonight and tomorrow will be staged in the Challenging PSM. Don't miss this great Broadway show, I'd say.

The show was two and a half hours in Istanbul? That's about a half hour longer than it was in its previous US incarnations. Interesting.

The writer made Deb slightly older: a no-no for ladies.

Kind of a bumpy translation. Better software is definitely needed. Nice review, though.

Ellen

[jo]

It looks like he may be on complete vocal rest, prescribed or voluntary on his part ?


This is his response to a government initiative for closure of aboriginal communities in Western Australia, which he chose to give via a written response rather than physically speaking out.

Interesting that the title in Turkish, when translated in English by BING is --

"Most lucky woman and Sexiest Male"

Maybe the above photo of Hugh responding to the aboriginal communities issue may not be indicative that he has to be or opted to be on complete vocal rest?

Here's another response to the issue, also similarly expressed via a written message   (Please scroll down) --

Is that Anna Paquin above? New Zealand (where she was raised) has aboriginal communities, too.

Well, she is 13 years older, so they got that part right. They just can't add! (46 + 13 = 59)
She will be 60 this year (me too! Ahhhh!)

Sorry carousekathy..I could only just now get online. I was referring to what suefb said that he mentions in his tweet that she was consulted. She was Joan Rivers' physician who was implicated in the botched procedure. At that time there was a lot of reference to the fact that she was "Hugh Jackman's voice doctor.". Guess she still knows his vocal chords better than anyone!

Guess she still knows his vocal chords better than anyone!

I'm concerned about this vocal chord injury. It will get better if he rests his voice completely, so I hope that's the plan. If his doctor was implicated in Joan Rivers botched surgery, that's scary. Hugh may have to bow out of some projects if he hopes to begin THE GREATEST SHOWMAN in September. I just watched the 50th Anniversary special for the film THE SOUND OF MUSIC, in which Julie Andrews mentions the botched surgery that ended her singing career. This is a serious condition, not to be treated lightly. Rest your voice, Hugh.

[mamaleh]

I think Julie Andrews had a benign tumor removed, so that differs from Hugh's case. I'm thinking more of Rod McKuen, a rock singer who blew out his vocal chords and ended up permanently hoarse. His story ended happily, though--he became a poet-performer, who had hit albums with his newer, more gravely but quieter, contemplative recordings. Hugh appears to have heeded advice to go on immediate vocal rest. So I'm hopeful. We'll see.

Ellen

[jo]

I guess we're all anxious for Hugh.

I looked up online layman-friendly medical articles on the subject of "injury to vocal folds/ cords" so as to be a bit familiar on what it means and how it is treated. This one looks like a good one for laymen.

www.voicedoctorla.com/vocal-hemorrhage/

I am hopeful that he went to see a specialist as soon as the problem emerged and had the beniefit of an early diagnosis ( together with his voice doctor in NYC - amazing how these things can now be done with the aid of technology, whose test results/scans are now easily sent online to the other end). If it had been fairly or really serious, maybe he would have flown back to NYC right away for more expert treatment...but he chose to stay in Istanbul until Saturday according to reports. Also, according to reports from Turkey( although the rough translation may be wrong), it seems he was advised to undergo treatment for two weeks, after which he might be able to have a normal schedule ( not sure if this includes the singing though)...His message saying he will back to Istanbul to fulfill his engagements is probably premised on his condition diagnosed as not being very serious.

He may be expected to return to filming for Eddie the Eagle next week - I guess if he still needs to observe vocal rest/treatment, they will shoot around him. Or maybe do the physical action ( acting) and simply do a dubbing later on? After this month, filming will then move to the UK for another month.

Hope he takes good care of himself! The art can wait.

A few days late --but I found this official statement from the Zorlu Performing Center after Hugh was diagnosed with the vocal hemorrhage. In English!

17 March, 2015 - 20 March, 2015 Main Theatre / Broadway

Sad news from Hugh Jackman: vocal hemorrhage "An Evening with Hugh Jackman" has been cancelled The rest of the shows of Hugh Jackman, who has performed on March 17th for the first time at Zorlu Performing Arts Center, have been cancelled due to the progression of the vocal cord hemorrhage he has.

Otorhinolaryngologist Assoc. Prof. Dr. İsmail Koçak, who has been following Hugh Jackman's health condition, indicated that they had to make this decision after the consultation they did with Hugh Jackman's private doctor in USA, Gwen Korovin. He said: "During the vocal examination we have determined an hemorrhage on Hugh Jackman's left vocal cord and we have started the treatment. After our common evaluation with Mr. Jackman's doctor in USA, we have decided that it's impossible for him to continue his performances. During this period, using his voice actively may create a permanent damage in his vocal cords. Yet, he can continue his shows after his treatment completes."

Also Hugh Jackman said: "Merhaba. I'm devastated to have to tell you … I have been diagnosed with a left vocal hemorrhage. At the advice of Dr. Ismail Kocak, MD and Dr. Gwen Korovin, I have to cancel the remainder of my shows here in Istanbul, Turkey, at the Zorlu Performing Arts Center.
