Sophia Bridgers
Batesville High School, Troupe 6564
Hello! My name is Sophia Bridgers, I’m a senior at Batesville Highschool, I originate from troupe 6564, and I am so elated to be one of your 2024-2025 STOs! My favorite musical is Falsettos and my favorite play is A Doll’s House. Theatre is my biggest passion and at the forefront of my interests, but when I’m not on the stage, you can find me on the sidelines cheerleading, the choir room singing, or in the library reading. I plan to pursue a career in public relations and I can’t wait to see what this year has in store!
