HeadFirst Productions | Founder & Artistic Director
Founded in 2013, HeadFirst Productions produced mid-scale opera and theatre with high production values. Its work was socially engaged, embracing ever-shifting perceptions and paradigms.
HFP was committed to creating work that is dynamic, engaging and exciting. The company strived to increase accessibility to the arts by producing exceptional work that is appealing for a new audience as well as for regular theatre-goers. It supported emerging talent and delivered outreach work for young people and adults alongside its programme of public events and productions.
Below is a selection of major projects that Sophie conceived and delivered:
