Hi, my name is Sofia and I am a British-Italian Director and Dramaturg.
I create bold, multi-disciplinary new-work and restaged classics, that blends ensemble, music, movement, and visual storytelling. My work is research-led, embracing a theatricality that is playful, political, and driven by curiosity. Born in the Midlands, I began my career as a fly-on-the-wall in RSC rehearsal rooms as a teenager, journeying through theatres across the South West early in my career and now based in London.
I have directed, assisted, and collaborated on productions across the UK and the West End, including the RSC, Shakespeare’s Globe, Bristol Old Vic, the Kiln, and the Watermill Theatre. I was Resident Director on SIX (West End) and won the 2024 Tall Stories Directors’ Award for Hussy.
As a facilitator, I am the creative learning associate and young trustee at Pilot Theatre, developing theatre outreach and engagement schemes in schools for the Deaf, while completing a PhD in Trans Studies and Early Modern Drama at the University of Exeter. As a hard-of-hearing artist, accessibility and communication are central to my practice, shaping how I approach liveness, language, and the shared space between performer and audience.
I’m represented by Tom Ping at Global Artists.
Current projects include Associate Director on Coven (Kiln Theatre) and Dramaturg on Petty Men (Arcola Theatre).
