Julia Sopher

Director

Hi, my name is Julia Sopher, my pronouns are she/her, and I am 22 years old. I have most recently taken an enormous leap in moving across the pond to study directing in London. I was born and raised in a mid-western State called Ohio, over yonder. My current plan is to create stories as a director, designer and assist the ensemble in whatever capacity I can! The worlds I gravitate towards include female stories, statistical comedies, and adaptions of the classics, typically in unique spaces. Ultimately, I am here to stretch myself, collaborate with a new collective of artists, and follow my dreams!
