Kevin Spacey Copenhagen concert cancelled, Digi Mart USA News (Copenhagen, Denmark): American actor Kevin Spacey was scheduled to perform music and personal stories in Denmark in about three weeks. However, according to the publisher’s report, the show will apparently not take place.
His musical show, “Songs & Stories,” was set to be performed at the Falconer Centre on November 28 and has now been cancelled. The Falconer Centre’s event department confirmed the cancellation to Politiken, but no reason was given.
As of Monday midday, the event was still listed on the Falconer Centre’s website. However, clicking “Buy ticket” led to a page that no longer exists.
The show was announced in June, but ticket sales reportedly slowed in September. From June until early September, the organizer had sold 120 tickets, and sales were completely stalled in July.
Ganna Voronych, who works for the Ukrainian ticket platform Karabas in Denmark and handled the booking of Spacey, told DR: “Yes, things are a bit quiet right now. I don’t know why.” Politiken said it had tried unsuccessfully to reach Karabas and Spacey’s agent after the cancellation.
The 66-year-old actor is known for his Oscar-winning performances in “The Usual Suspects” and “American Beauty” and for films such as “L.A. Confidential” and “Se7en.” He also received wide acclaim for his role as U.S.
President Frank Underwood in the Netflix series “House of Cards.”
In 2017, he was fired from the series after being accused of sexual misconduct. He later paid the production company behind the series $31 million in compensation after the sixth and final season was rewritten and shortened to eight episodes instead of the planned 13.
Kevin Spacey initially denied all allegations and said that any incidents, to the extent he believed they occurred at all, were consensual. As recently as March of this year, he reached settlements with three men who had sued him for sexual assault.
In summer 2023, he was acquitted in a case in which he was accused of sexual assault against four men during a period when he was artistic director of the Old Vic theatre in London. Other cases were dropped due to “legal technicalities.”
In a 2024 interview with journalist Piers Morgan on the YouTube channel “Piers Morgan Uncensored,” Spacey said he had been flirtatious and had “pushed boundaries,” and had touched people in ways he did not know they wanted. In the same interview, he said he had gone bankrupt and that his house had been foreclosed on because he had to pay compensation and legal bills.
