Ellen Roberts

Ellen is originally from Alexandria, Virginia. She started training in ballet at age 6 at the Washington School of Ballet and fell in love with it immediately. In sixth grade she performed her first professional show as Baby Louise in Gypsy at Signature Theatre in Arlington, VA. It was there that she truly fell in love with musical theatre. For high school, she recieved a scholarship to UNCSA as a ballet major and moved away from home at 14. She eventually found her way back to musical theatre as a senior in high school, where she made the switch to Metropolitan School of the Arts in Virginia. It was here she realized her dream was to be a musical theater performer. Post high school, she moved to Nashville to join Nashville Ballet's trainee program while applying to schools for musical theater.

 

She received her BFA from Boston Conservatory as a Musical Theatre major with a dance emphasis. A few days after graduation, she began rehearsals for Disney's Beauty and the Beast 25th Anniversary National Tour. She is currently touring the country and loving every second of it!
