That was so inspiring and wonderful. I assume somebody, a teacher or acting coach made Kevin Spacey aware of this young man’s potential talent. Getting the opportunity to train at a top drama school will change his life forever. We may even see this guy in tv or movies someday. But actors can make a good living performing in regional theater productions too. thank you for posting. ---
