Biography

Sonia Mary Biddlecombe, later renowned as Graham, embarked on a remarkable journey in the world of performing arts, commencing at the tender age of sixteen when she was awarded a prestigious scholarship to the esteemed Guildhall School of Music and Drama, located in the heart of London.

As a young and ambitious individual, Graham's early career was marked by a series of performances in repertory theatre, with notable appearances in Preston, Farnham, Leatherhead, and Wolverhampton. Her impressive credentials continued to grow as she joined the ranks of the Old Vic in London and subsequently embarked on a thrilling tour of South Africa, further honing her craft and broadening her experience.

In addition to her stage work, Graham also made significant contributions to London's theatrical scene, taking on the role of the Duenna and, in a more lighthearted capacity, playing the principal girl in the Players Theatre's festive pantomime production of Beauty and the Beast.

Graham's standout performance in Meet Me By Moonlight at the Aldwych Theatre ultimately led to a plethora of television and revue engagements, cementing her status as a talented and versatile performer, well-versed in a wide range of genres and styles.
