As a kid, actor Will Sharpe moved from Japan to England and says he never quite felt like he fit in.<\/p>\n

“People who have lived in different countries or who are mixed race, you do sometimes end up with this feeling that you’re not really sure where your home is or how to identify,” Sharpe says. “If I go back to Japan, I can speak the language, but kind of in a very wobbly way … like a very Western version of a Japanese person.”<\/p>\n

Sharpe brings some of that outsider energy to the limited Starz series, Amadeus<\/em>. The show, which was adapted from the 1979 stage play<\/a>, tells the story of 18th-century composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart<\/a> \u2014 an eccentric genius who uses music to express what he isn’t able to say.<\/p>\n
