Hi there! I’m Sophie Blumberg, a creative producer with 15 years of experience developing and producing new work across theatre, television, opera, dance, music, and experimental performance. I thrive on guiding complex, multi-disciplinary productions from concept through production on compressed timelines—delivering world premieres, touring shows, artist residencies, and curated festivals. Beyond the show, I’m equally passionate about building strong artistic and industry relationships, negotiating contracts, and creating efficient, scalable systems (Airtable, Asana, Google Suite) to keep teams aligned and stakeholders informed. I enjoy on-set problem-solving, mentoring emerging producers, and shaping organizational culture to support bold creative outcomes.
