Sonia Allam Casting
Sonia Allam Casting is an independent UK casting office primarily working across high-end television and film.
We love finding great actors and putting together casts that feel fresh, truthful and
rooted in the stories being told. That might mean working with established names or
giving an emerging actor the opportunity to take that next step.
We've worked across primetime drama, comedy, children's television and independent
film, but whatever the project, we're always looking for the same thing: brilliant people
who make the characters and their world feel real.
