Anthony Fox is an Irish writer, producer, director, actor and founder of the New Theatre, Dublin.[1][2] Originally from County Cavan, Fox left Ireland in 1992 to study acting at the Lee Strasberg Studio in London.[3] From there he went to New York to work with the Irish Repertory Theatre, and had parts in A Wilde Night on Broadway[4] and Juno and the Paycock.[5]
Fox returned to Ireland in 1997, and set up the New Theatre in Dublin's Temple Bar.[6] Fox later played the lead role in the Irish premiere of Tennessee Williams' Sweet Bird of Youth, as directed by Tim McDonnell, and in 2004 played the lead role in a production of Brendan Behan's The Hostage. His film and TV credits include The General and The Bill on ITV.
