Spacey's Old Vic cancels summer shows

Forthcoming productions at Kevin Spacey's London theatre have been axed for five months following weeks of poor audience ratings and dismal critical reviews.

David Liddiment, producer of the Old Vic Theatre Company, has confirmed the venue will not stage any more in-house plays until September, when Spacey will take the lead role in Eugene O'Neill's A Moon For The Misbegotten.
