“Roddy is a firebrand, giving audiences a Roxie that is brassy and vivacious.”
“As Roxie Hart, Ellie Roddy delivered a revelation. Her comedic timing was impeccable, but it was her mastery of movement that elevated her performance from impressive to hypnotic. Every step, every flick of the wrist, every perfectly measured swivel of her hips carried intention...” “...She was magnetic, funny, unapologetically ambitious, a Roxie who understands that manipulation can also be performance art. She danced with such crisp musicality that even the smallest gesture became a punctuation mark in the rhythm of the story.”
“Ellie Roddy as Roxie Hart absolutely sizzled. She brought a magnetic blend of innocence, ambition, and sly wit to the role, making Roxie both endearing and dangerously charming. Her comedic timing was razor sharp, her vocals bright and expressive, and her physicality pure Fosse flair. From her wide-eyed scheming in ‘Funny Honey’ to the captivating vulnerability and humor she poured into ‘Roxie,’ Roddy delivered a standout performance that lit up the stage every time she appeared.”
“Lane and Ellie Roddy (“Roxie Hart”) are a dynamic duo, each bringing their own flavor to these iconic roles... while Roddy captures Roxie’s naïve ambition and cunning.”
“If you want to see a Fosse masterclass in action, pay close attention to sizzling trio Roddy... inhabit “Me and my Baby” with phenomenal pizzazz”
