ABOUT
ABOUT SOPHIE
A bit of a traveller by nature but currently based in South Wales. I am a Performer, Puppet maker and Designer. My focus in working collaboratively and across disciplines. I have a deep interest in Asian influences and movement techniques within puppetry.
​
I graduated East 15 Acting school with a First-Grade Hons Degree in World Performance, which is where my journey into puppetry began. This summer I am due to complete my Masters degree in design for performance – puppetry.
​
I spent a lot of time supporting across departments with European touring company ‘White Horse Theatre’ which allows me to work collaboratively. I often hold children’s workshops and lead dance and drama classes for local dance schools. I have a passion for performance and sharing theatre with others.
