Chambers, who also won the sixth series of BBC One’s Strictly Come Dancing in 2008, will take on the role of Ben, the husband of the central character Christine, played by Fletcher.
The novel, penned by SJ Watson, follows Christine who loses her memory every time she goes to sleep, waking up with no recollection of the last 20 years of her life.
As she attempts to piece together her life, she uncovers hidden and terrifying truths.
Chambers said: “It’s such a brilliantly unsettling story, and what I love about it is that you’re never quite sure who or what to believe.

“I can’t wait to get into rehearsals and bring this extraordinary thriller to audiences around the country.”
Chambers will remain with the production until its engagement at Sheffield’s Lyceum Theatre.
Further casting announcements are expected.
