Roxanne “Roxy” King grew up tap dancing in the DC-Metro (DMV) area. Roxy has had the privilege to study with teachers such as Baakari Wilder, Jason Janas, Chloe Arnold, and Charles Renato. From the age of nine Roxy joined as one of the first and longest running members of the Metropolitan Youth Tap Ensemble (MYTE). Under MYTE Roxy had the privilege to travel the country via tap festivals to study as well as perform amongst her peers. For most of her college years Roxy had taught at various tap festivals in the USA and across Brazil. Upon graduating from the University of Maryland for Theatre and Performance Studies, Roxy has been on tour with companies such as Music From The Sole, and Michela Lerman’s Love Movement. Roxy is absolutely thrilled to be starting her next chapter in life by moving to her dream city of Chicago to join the Chicago Tap Theatre!
