Tonight I watched an episode of the BBC series "New Tricks," which is currently running on one of our PBS stations. The opening scene featured teenagers throwing bricks off an overpass at cars on the motorway below and the subsequent arrest of one of the boys, played by, you guessed it, Fox Jackson-Keen. I recognized him immediately, but I made sure to watch the credits after the show to make sure that it was indeed Fox whom I had seen, and it was.

While we're strolling down memory lane with a number of "throw back" photos recently, Fox Jackson-Keen's dad, Kevin, tweeted this picture earlier today with the caption "Where it all began 9 years ago". It was the site of Fox's BETM audition. And the rest, as they say, is history as Fox went on to portray the title character more times on the London stage than anyone before him or to date.

Fox Jackson-Keen has been cast as 'Boy' in Roald Dahl's The Witches, performed at The Curve, Leicester, 16 December to 10 January.

The show, a co-production with The Rose Theatre Kingston, will embark on a national tour in spring 2016. It is not stated whether or not Fox will take part in that.

Here's a glowing review from Whats On Stage of Fox's current show,The Witches, playing this week at the Leicester Curve.

It includes this: "Fox Jackson-Keen as Boy shows his Billy Elliot pedigree in a performance bursting with energy whether it's a backward somersault, guitar playing or the lightest of comedy routines with his friend Bruno (the excellent Kieran Urquhart)."

This ad is fairly meaningless to me, we don't have Tacobell around here. (it's American) but it is good to see Fox.
