Biography
Olivier award winning Sophie has had recent roles in Feel Good on Channel 4, Ghosts and Everything I Know About Love on BBC, and was in Present Laughter at the Old Vic in 2019.
Sophie on BOVTS, “I had my heart utterly set on going to the BOVTS & my joy at getting a place knew no bounds. In my day it was just two plump crumbly houses knocked together. Not a ‘facility’ in sight save a large mirror in the basement room, a pay phone under the stairs and a vending machine in the smoky blue linoleumed green room. We had to turn up equipped with a cloak, some character shoes and the then ubiquitous leg warmer. It was perfect.”
I absolutely love working backstage. It was something I had never done before arriving at BOVTS and I'm so grateful for the opportunity.
