Sophie Rey is a New York City based Vocalist and Performer. She hails from Madison, Wisconsin, where, when she was literally 0.3 years old she went to her first concert (she was a happy accident and her parents already had Bob Dylan tickets). This would be the first of many live performances Sophie would experience; one of the most memorable being a KISS concert with her dad (at age 10) in which they both donned the classic full-face KISS makeup (photo below).

Sophie has and continues to train her voice extensively; most notably with Johnna Tavianini and Kassy Coleman and is most known for her skills in sight reading, harmonizing and riffing. She has produced and headlined 3 cabarets as well as lends her voice to various music projects around NYC, most recently doing background vocals for artist D.K. Lyons. She is also the lead singer of all-female rock band, Chix Appeal. Her most recent musical release is an album called “Just the Covers” - you can find it wherever you listen to music.

At 10, Sophie was able to perform in the Broadway National tour of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, which sparked her passion for theater. Other professional theater credits include Boeing Boeing with Metropolis Performing Arts Center and Tony ‘n’ Tina’s Wedding (Chicago Theatre Works).

 Sophie received her BFA in Acting from Ball State University where she trained in movement under the direction of Marc Devine, Jonathan Becker, and Drew Vidal. She trained in acting with Eva Patton, Pete Zapp, and Emily Tzucker. Additionally, she wrote and produced her own one-person show under the direction of DeeDee Batteast.

 Sophie has worked extensively with children interning at Madison Creative Arts Program, working as a Teaching Assistant with Children’s Theatre of Madison, doing children’s theater at Lifeline Theatre in Chicago and, by day, is a nanny! She is also fully trained in Martial Arts having received her first-degree black belt at the age of 10.

 Her interests outside of the entertainment industry include swimming, roller blading, basketball, board games, reality TV and making her friends laugh.
