Graham Smith’s debut novel Snatched from Home is about to make the transfer from page to stage as the book comes alive with the help of acclaimed actor and director, Derek Lawson, with an exciting new production.

“I’m thrilled that Snatched from Home has been adapted into a stage version. This is a rare treat for any author let alone a debut author.” Graham said. Graham is travelling from Gretna Green to Salford for the event. “I’ve been attending the rehearsals and think the adaptation is brilliant. Seeing my characters literally fleshed out and breathing is amazing.”
This brand-new adaptation of Scottish writer’s best-selling debut novel, tells the tale of middle-class parents Victoria and Nicholas Foulkes , who are distraught when their children are kidnapped and used as leverage against Nicholas’ gambling debts. Penniless and desperate, the couple turn to crime as a way to raise the ransom. Hot on their heels is DI Harry Evans and his Major Crimes team. Who can save their children Samantha and Kyle before time runs out?
Along with Bill, in the production, which is produced in accordance with Equity’s new #castitinyorkshire policy, three other members of the cast, are travelling from Yorkshire to make their GM Fringe debuts. 

The production will run from the 8-10th of July at Salford Arts Theatre. Tickets on sale from the venue and from the GM Fringe website (http://www.greatermanchesterfringe.co.uk).
