Sadie Frost and ex-Libertines band member Carl BaratSadie Frost’s return to the stage earlier this year has given her the appetite to act again. It’s been announced she will go into rep in the New Year.
Frost is to team up with ex-Libertines band member Carl Barat (pictured above with Frost), who has now turned to acting, in a 80s play Fool for Love at the Riverside Studios.
The production opens on 28th January 2010 and will be produced in rep from theatre company Love&Madness. Two further productions will join the season Richard III, which also features Frost as Lady Anne.
The third play will be a devised production called Demi Monde.
Fool for Love, directed by Sam Shepard is a love story. In a seedy motel room in southern California, May (Frost) and Eddie (Barat) go back beyond their adult lives, back to the legacy of their parents and their parents before. As they challenge each other’s versions of events, what emerges through broken images and scraps of remembered colours is a childhood which defines the rest of their lives.
Frost was last seen on stage in her one-woman show, Touched, at the Trafalgar Studios.
