Star Sighting! Academy Award Winner Kevin Spacey Flies by Bye Bye Birdie

We already knew that Kevin Spacey is a Broadway buff. The screen star has trotted the board ably himself over the years, winning a Tony Award for Lost in Yonkers and appearing in productions like The Iceman Cometh, Long Day’s Journey into Night and A Moon for the Misbegotten. What we did not know is that the star, currently the artistic director across the pond at London’s Old Vic Theatre, is close friends with Birdie star John Stamos, which is why Spacey went out of his way on November 1 to check out his friend’s performance in the revival of the classic musical. We tagged along backstage for Spacey’s visit, snapping a few shots to share. Click through and check them out before Spacey says bye bye Broadway and heads back to London.
