Headline: Kevin Spacey receives standing ovation following first performance since trial
Caption: The House of Cards actor appeared during a lecture on cancel culture at the Sheldonian Theatre in Oxford, England and performed a five-minute scene from William Shakespeare's Timon of Athens. In the play, Timon is a wealthy man in Athens who showers his fair-weather friends with gifts, but they do not help him when his money runs out. Spacey, 64, appeared alongside conservative columnist Douglas Murray, who delivered the lecture, titled The Life and Legacy of Sir Roger Scruton. Murray told The Times that Timon of Athens was about what "happens when a society drops a person for no reason"
