From dazzling gala press nights to juggling life as a mum, Stagecoach principal, performer, and personal trainer, Sophie Isaacs has lived a life full of curtain calls - both on and off the stage.

In this episode of Performing in Life, Sophie shares her full-circle journey: from singing in a Stagecoach Joseph choir to starring in Six, Heathers, Rocky Horror, and beyond - all while carrying her family’s Stagecoach legacy with pride.

She opens up about discipline, resilience, and why performing has more in common with being an athlete than you might think.

We talk about:

• The thrill of gala performances and Sophie’s biggest onstage costume malfunctions

• Carrying on her mum’s legacy and running Stagecoach alongside her sister Gemma

• Why fitness, running, and personal training became a vital outlet for her

• Landing her dream roles, from Goldilocks to Six

• The leap from stage to screen on Hollyoaks and what she learned about TV vs theatre

• Honest advice for young performers (and their parents!) about resilience, self-esteem, and pursuing a career in the arts

With warmth, humour, and unshakable honesty, Sophie reflects on her proudest moments, toughest lessons, and why she’s passionate about helping the next generation of young people believe in their own capability.
