@musicaltheatergeek79 When I have encountered him he has an accent somewhere in between American and English. He was born in England and raised in America, however, he spent many years in England so I wouldn't expect him to have an American accent.
Nice interview, but perplexing in the respect that Bacon is no longer a credible candidate. Too many squares into round pegs, his age, his inability to pen comic plays being the hardest to reconcile. The fact that Bacon was a relative of de Vere, and employed Ben Jonson as a secretary, allows one to place him and Jonson on the posthumous editing committee, along with the dedicatees of the 1st folio, Lord Oxford's son in law and brother, the Earls of Pembroke and Montgomery. It's Oxford!
he was using his character's accent when he accepted the Tony.

Why does he have an English accent here? He was raised in America. And he didn't have one when he accepted his Tony two years ago.

@musicaltheatergeek79 I think it's just part of him showing off his acting ability.
