| While we hope the level of predatory behavior and sexual harassment has been less in the theater community than in Hollywood, none of us are naive enough to believe it didn't happen. Today, Anthony Rapp reveals the details of an encounter with Kevin Spacey that left him quite shaken and confused. At the time, Rapp was 14 and Spacey was 26. The two men haven't addressed it since, but you can tell it remains an issue for Rapp. If others are able, I hope they, too, discuss what happened to them. The conversation is beginning to shift, which can help people heal themselves and help educate others. I'm grateful to Anthony Rapp for sharing his story; I hope he finds a measure of peace in setting it free. I know it will help others. (Since Deadline's initial publication, the story has been updated to include an apology by Spacey and a bit of an explanation for his behavior on Twitter. adding “As those closest to me know, in my life I have had relationships with both men and women,” he said. “I have loved and had romantic encounters with men throughout my life, and I choose to live as a gay man.”) |
