Sophie has a soft spot in her heart for musical theatre. Whilst currently completing her Drama and Music HSC, Sophie undertakes singing tuition and studies at Eden Dance Academy and, eager to learn, she participates in workshops with the likes of NIDA and Rachael Beck. Sophie has participated in many productions as part of the rigorous Performing Arts stream at Karabar High School, including Little Shop of Horrors, Reflections, The Power, Oklahoma!, as Ado Annie, and, most recently, as the Storyteller in The Musical Adventures of Peter Pan. In 2013, Sophie branched out onto the community theatre scene appearing as Winnie in Queanbeyan Players' production of Annie Get Your Gun. In May this year she performed in Hothouse - A Showcase of Monologues with Budding Theatre in May.
Sophie aspires to further her education in the performing arts and become a seasoned performer in the Canberra theatre community. She would like to thank the creative team for their wisdom and patience, and her parents in their support of her undertaking of the infamous HSC, dancing, two jobs, and Grease all at the same time.
