Biography:
Sophie is an Actress and a Writer. Born in Glasgow and raised in London where she is now based.
Putting both skills to great use, Sophie wrote a one person show, When to Run, and then performed in it, to critical acclaim, at The Soho Theatre. Next up was Fight Face; about a fight outside a kebab shop. Lots of characters but just two actors and featuring pioneering subtitles and animations that both deaf audiences and hearing audiences can enjoy.
In 2009 Sophie landed the lead role of Gabby in Channel 4's Cast Offs; a hard hitting, darkly comic drama written by Jack Thorne and produced by Eleven Films. Cast Off's was nominated for the Royal Television Society's Best Drama Series Award 2010 and a ROSE D'OR..
Radio work includes her play Carbon Cleansing (for BBC Radio 4) The Verb (BBC Radio 3) and the forthcoming London Nights Season (written and performed Live and exclusively for Radio 4)
Sophie is currently working on a number of projects including 'I Would Rather Go Blind' exploring the often comic scenario's of a relationship between a deaf woman and a blind man!
