Emerson even learned pidgin, with the help of intense coaching from Honolulu Theatre for Youth company actor BullDog.
The result: The actors from the cast of ABC-TV's "Lost" helped raise nearly $20,000 for the Honolulu Theatre for Youth, with selected readings from HTY's 2007-2008 season of plays, in a benefit that drew a packed house last Sunday at Tenney Theatre.
Spectators paid $100 to $300 for a chance to see and hear "Lost" principals — in a theatrical setting instead of a windswept beach or amid a tangle of jungle vines — and meet them at a post-show reception.

(Editorial note: The amazing thing about this article is that they zeroed in on Michael Emerson's performance only. He must have wovw'ed them for sure. But all of us who are his fans are not surprised.)
