Lost actor Fox finds way to West End stage

Lost star Matthew Fox is to make his debut on the British stage in the world premiere of a new play by US writer Neil LaBute.

The Hollywood star, 44, who played Dr Jack Shephard in the hit desert-island TV drama Lost, which came to an end after six years in May, will tread the boards with British actress Olivia Williams.

In a Forest, Dark and Deep is described as a dark comedy of sibling rivalry which "escalates into a psychological thriller bursting with savage conflict".

LaBute will also direct the play, which will open at the Vaudeville Theatre on The Strand in London's West End in March.

Fox stars as Bobby, who helps his sister Betty (Williams), clear out her cottage in the forest. But "nothing is as it seems and the truth refuses to be packed away".
