Snatched

Written and performed by Melissa Johns Mon 16 – Wed 18 May 22 70 minutes
In 2018, disabled actor Melissa Johns' iCloud was hacked and explicit photos of her were released online. A young disabled woman with a history of body dysmorphia comes to terms with her body becoming public property.

This humorous and revealing show displays no remorse in championing female sexuality, fighting body shaming and the taboo of sex and disability. Snatched is a fast-paced, uplifting one woman show accompanied by a live 90’s/00’s soundtrack.

Melissa Johns born in Hereford and raised in Ledbury, her credits include – Hannah Taylor in BBC’s LIFE, Miss Scott in ITV’s Granchester, Imogen Pascoe in Coronation Street and 2021’s line up of Celebrity Masterchef. Melissa made her West End debut earlier this year in Henry V at Donmar Warehouse alongside Kit Harrington.

Supported by Arts Council England and The Lowry
