NOW: in the Wings on a World Stage is the result of collaboration between two exceptionally gifted artists, Kevin Spacey and Sam Mendes, and is their first project together since both won Academy Awards® for American Beauty. With Mendes the director and Spacey as the tyrannical Richard III, this feature length documentary is set across three continents over ten months as they tour their production of one of Shakespeare’s classic tragedies across the globe “There are a multitude of challenges that come with being in a new theatre in an unknown city every few weeks. There were some tears and a lot of laughs. We became a family by sharing unforgettable moments, practicing our craft across three continents over 10 months of time…The success of the project was beyond my highest hopes.” – Kevin Spacey
