Kevin Spacey Receives Standing Ovation in Surprise Oxford Appearance

Spacey performed a monologue from Shakespeare's Timon of Athens at an event on cancel culture, his first stage appearance since being acquitted of sexual assault charges.
Spacey was introduced by journalist Douglas Murray, who spoke on the dangers of cancel culture and defended Spacey as a talented actor.
The audience gave Spacey a lengthy standing ovation following his monologue referencing his own struggles with being "cancelled".
Spacey's appearance came shortly after a cinema dropped plans to host the premiere of his new film due to the sexual assault allegations.
Spacey was found not guilty of sexual assault charges in a July trial in the UK, though his career has suffered damage from the accusations.
