SXSW 2012

"I disregard the proportions, the measures, the tempo of the ordinary world...I will not adjust myself to the world. I am adjusted to myself." - Anais Nin "Style is a simple way of saying complicated things." - Jean Cocteau Roxie Moxie is a glam-punk-rockin’ streak of flash and sass. Standing 4’10” without the heels (and she is rarely without), this tiny, tenacious teaser commands the stage. A classically trained dancer, Roxie began burlesquing in 2006 when she co-founded the Lollie Bombs, a contemporary burlesque ensemble. Since then, this hot little bump-and-grinder has tested the limits of burlesque performance with dynamic acts that exhibit comedic flair and a knack for narrative storytelling. In 2008 Roxie relocated to Seattle, where she co-founded Stripped Screw Burlesque – a burlesque dance troupe with a decidedly modern take on the art of the striptease, and she recently took the stage in New York City where she played the part of Feral in SHINE: A Burlesque Musical in the NYC Fringe Festival. Roxie has most recently relocated to Austin, Texas.
