SPACEY
Vic Theater, the
company
announced
Wednesday.
Spacey, who
won Oscars
for the movies
"The Usual
Suspects"
(1995) and
"American Beauty" (1999), will
lead a new company of actors
from 2004 and will appear in at
least two productions each sea
son, he told a crowded news
conference at the historic the
ater.
"I am thrilled the Old Vic's
board of directors has given me
their confidence to take on such
a challenging role," said the 43-
year-old, who first visited the the
ater at 7 during a trip to London
with his parents.
"I remember seeing
Shakespeare and other produc
tions on the Old Vic stage. To
have grown up to act on the
stage itself was a dream come
true," he said. 'To find myself in
the role of director of the Old Vic
Theater is beyond my wildest
imaginings."
Spacey has maintained a close
relationship with the Old Vic
since he starred in Eugene
O'Neill's "The Iceman Cometh"
there in 1998. He's one of the
theater's trustees and has played
a role in raising funds to ensure
its survival.
Later Wednesday, Spacey was
to sing some duets with Elton
John at a fund-raising gala con
cert at the theater.
Long known as "the actors' the
ater," the Old Vic has provided a
stage for many of the greatest
performers of the last century,
including John Gielgud, Peggy
Ashcroft, Alec Guinness, Peter
O'Toole, Judi Dench and Maggie
Smith. It's the former home of
Laurence Olivier's National
Theater company.
'Bachelor' Buerge no
longer engaged
NEW YORK (AP) - The second
"Bachelor" is still a bachelor.
Aaron Buerge, a 28-year-old
banker from Springfield, Mo.,
proposed to Helene Eksterowicz
at the end of the second season
of "The Bachelor," ABC's
romance-reality series in which
an eligible guy chooses a bride
from among 25 hopefuls.
An estimated 29 million view
ers watched the Nov. 20 finale, as
Buerge got down on one knee
and placed a diamond ring on
Eksterowicz' left hand. (He
refused to let the show spring for
the rock, and insisted on buying it
himself.)
Now, he says in the Feb. 17
issue of People magazine that
the engagement was over by
New Year's.
"There has not been any dag
ger throwing," Buerge said,
adding that neither had been
unfaithful. He said he and
Eksterowicz, a 27-year-old school
psychologist from Gloucester
City, N.J., stay in touch by e-mail,
and will explain why the
romance died on a Feb. 201
special.
So did Eksterowicz keepfo
ring? "That will be revealed i
