Having recently played Shelley in I Should Be So Lucky (UK & Ireland Tour), Melissa Jacques is currently preparing to perform a very special solo show, Songs My Father Told Me I Should Sing.
Taking place at the Phoenix Arts Club on Monday 8th July, Melissa will share songs from some of the inspirational artists her dad introduced her to as a kid growing up in Sheffield as well as numbers linked to her career. Melissa has co-written the show with Jamie Alexander Wilson who is also directing whilst musical direction and arrangements are by Sam Hall.
Melissa’s regional theatre credits include: Little Shop of Horrors, Me and My Girl, Spend Spend Spend, Crazy For You, Oliver!, Company, Into The Woods and many more.
Melissa understudied Donna, Rosie and Tanya in the original West End cast of Mamma Mia! In 1999. She had a total of three stints in the show and later became the alternate Donna.
Some of Melissa’s other theatre credits include understudying Madame Morrible in Wicked (Apollo Victoria Theatre), playing Trish in Kinky Boots (Adelphi Theatre) and starring as Carol’s Mum in the semi-staged performances of 42 Balloons (Vaudeville Theatre).
Melissa joined the West End production of Everybody’s Talking About Jamie (Apollo Theatre) as the standby for Margaret, Ray and Miss Hedge in 2018. The following year Melissa took over as Margaret to tremendous acclaim and stayed with the production until it closed in 2021. Melissa later reprised her performance when the musical had its US premiere in LA in 2022.
Melissa’s screen credits include Doctors, Disenchanted and the upcoming film adaptation of Wicked.
In this episode Melissa discusses juggling being a mum with being on tour, her life changing audition for Everybody’s Talking About Jamie and the influences behind her new solo show, plus lots more!
