Sophia is delighted to be returning to Artistic Synergy of Baltimore for a second time for their production of MURDER ON THE NILE! This role was presented to Sophia when the theatre needed an actress to play the Steward and she happily obliged. In her free time Sophia likes to go on walks with her rescue dog Bella, dance in her bedroom and scroll on Pinterest for hours on work nights. Sophia is very delighted to be working with some close friends she made doing theatre and she’s glad she made some new ones. She would like to thank the cast and crew for being very accommodating to her during this process, as Sophia joined the cast halfway through and had to learn blocking very quickly. She hopes you enjoy the show! And she hopes you return to see her perform in ASOB’s production of SWEENEY TODD in CONCERT which will be premiering in December.
