    Comedian Steve Martin has tested positive for COVID-19. The diagnosis forced him to cancel two live performances this weekend. The shows were part of his ongoing tour with Martin Short.

    The cancellations affected fans in Virginia Beach and Richmond. Martin personally announced the news on his Instagram account. He expressed his regret for the sudden change in plans.

    Tour Dates Postponed Following Health Update

    Martin shared the update with his followers on Friday. He posted a somber picture of his dog to deliver the message. He stated he could not perform while sick.

    An official notice was also posted on his website. It confirmed the positive COVID test result. The notice advised that all ticket holders would receive refunds. According to Reuters, event cancellations remain common for performers facing illness.

       

    History of COVID-Related Show Disruptions

    This is not the first time the tour has faced COVID issues. Earlier this year, Martin Short contracted the virus. That incident also led to multiple show postponements.

    The tour is scheduled to continue for nearly two more years. The next performance is set for early October in Florida. Martin’s health is being monitored closely. The tour is expected to resume once he makes a full recovery.
