News PHOTO CALL: Matthew Fox and Olivia Williams in London In a Forest, Dark and Deep Matthew Fox, best known for his role as Dr. Jack Shephard in TV's "Lost," makes his U.K. stage debut opposite Olivia Williams in the world premiere of Neil LaBute's In a Forest, Dark and Deep, playing the West End's Vaudeville Theatre.

The play, which is directed by the playwright, is described in press materials as "a dark comedy of sibling rivalry" that "escalates into a psychological thriller, bursting with savage conflict." On a dark and stormy night, all Bobby thought he was doing was helping his sister Betty clear out her cottage in the forest. But in this cabin of lies nothing is as it seems and the truth refuses to be packed away. What is she hiding? Does he really want to find out?

Here is a first look at the show:
