Synopsis

Sophie, a theatre actress living with schizophrenia, welcomes reporters to her home and talks about her life and career. The reporters want to know everything about her, asking about how her husband John fell in love with her, and if she will retire from the Theatre now that she’s had a baby.
But as the story unfolds her world crumbles around her as her reality unravels.
For soprano and piano, where the music and the songs weave the story together, and allow the audience a glimpse into Sophie’s mind. (fringetoronto.com)
