~~~~~~~
Sonya Aronowitz is an independent creative producer of theatrical events, an arts entrepreneur, and a writer. She grew up in Manchester, UK and loves her adopted home of Philadelphia.
As the Executive Producer of Juniper Productions, she is involved in everything from developing show concepts to the nuts and bolts of producing. The question that guides her work is how an independent producer can contribute to a vital and vibrant arts and culture scene in Philadelphia – and by connecting talented theatre artists with audiences.
Through Juniper, Sonya is building a new platform, The Distillery, which is incubating and mentoring new female creative producers in Philadelphia.
As a writer, she is inspired by Norse mythology, Russian literature and history, and James Joyce. She is currently working on MOVIES I HAVE NOT SEEN, a pop-culture-infused memoir of growing up in Manchester in the 70s and 80s, and in eighteen episodes.
