Malkovich Cancels Tel Aviv Appearance Over Misattributed PR Quote
American actor John Malkovich canceled his planned Tel Aviv performance of The Music Critic after confirming that a promotional quote attributed to him by the Israeli promoter’s PR team was misquoted; he says he did not utter the phrases and will not participate, with the producer apologizing for the error. The satirical show, which blends classical music with harsh reviews, had been slated for April 2027, and Malkovich has previously visited Israel for other works.
