One of Greece’s most famous singers was in intensive care on Thursday after suffering a stroke mid-performance in Athens’ ancient Odeon Theatre, beneath the Acropolis.
Videos shot from the stands showed folk singer Marinella, 86, collapsing on stage during Wednesday’s tribute concert at the Roman-era Odeon of Herodes Atticus.
The hospital said on Thursday she had suffered a “serious vascular stroke” and was in intensive care.
Marinella’s career has spanned over six decades.
