Meet the disabled West End dancer - who performs every night on crutches

A disabled dancer who performs on the West End using her crutches is fed up of trolls saying she "looks silly".

Sophia Adzoa-Moore, 25, has used crutches full time since 2013, after waking up one morning unable to walk.

She was diagnosed with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS) in July 2024, which causes severe pain in her hips and joints, as well as fatigue and dizziness.

At the age of 18, she nearly quit performing to study backstage theatre production - as she didn't think she'd be able to dance on crutches.

But she decided to start applying to dance colleges throughout 2020 and 2021 - and after being accepted to the Performance Preparation Academy (PPA) in Guildford, Surrey, Sophia "hasn't looked back".
