Sophie Thompson

has been performing publicly since the age of five playing piano but has been singing since she can remember. Sophie also danced as a young child, but her love of performing truly started blossoming when she began theater at the age of 10. Sophie has been in a wide range of productions, including Twelve Angry Men, Matilda the Musical, and Gianni Schicchi. Sophie is a classically trained soubrette soprano, and recently received her Bachelors in Music Education from the University of Southern Maine. 

Outside of performing, Sophie has started to find a love for directing and conducting. Sophie has conducted multiple choral concerts and masterclasses with choral directors from around the country. Additionally, Sophie worked as the Assistant Director of the Portland Symphony Orchestra’s Childrens’ Choir during their 2024-2025 season. Sophie is excited to spend this Summer as Crescendo’s Summer Camp Director, including directing CSPA’s Productions of “The Jungle Book KIDS” and “Matilda The Musical JR.” at Bonny Eagle High School. She is currently looking for a full-time music teaching position in Southern Maine.
