Sadie Frost will make her West End debut in Touched… For the Very First Time, Zoe Lewis’ one-woman play about an obsessive Madonna fan, which will run February 4-March 14 at the 100-seat Trafalgar Studios 2. The production will be directed by Douglas Rintoul and designed by Colin Richmond, with lighting by Katharine Williams and movement by Jamie Bradley.

Frost will play Lesley, a 36-year-old who dreams of being best friends with Madonna. She narrates her life from that earth-shattering moment as a plump 14-year-old in 1984, when she hears “Like a Virgin” for the very first time. The show is set against a backdrop of pop classics from the 1980s and 1990s. Lewis’ other plays include , Glastonbury, Guns and Noses, Paradise Syndrome and Sharp Relief.

Frost began her career on stage at the Manchester Royal Exchange and went on to appear in more than 20 films such as The Heavy, Dracula, and The Krays.
