London Production
Its UK premier was in 2006 under the artistic direction of Kevin Spacey at the Old Vic. The play was directed by veteran film director Robert Altman. Echoing much of Spacey's reign at the Old Vic, it suffered mass criticism despite boasting a famous cast that included James Fox, Maximilian Schell and Neve Campbell. It was forced to close early especially after the actress playing Emily (the American film director) left the production. Spacey said the cast suffered from "nerves the like of which I've never seen".
