LEXXE
This week we’re sitting down with Company XIVs leading lady, LEXXE, who is currently playing Alice in fan favorite returning show, Queen of Hearts. From Ballerina to Pop Queen, LEXXE is a classically trained dancer and singer, who’s talent and career has taken her from House of Yes all the way to American Ballet Theatre – talk about versatility! LEXXE’s music can be heard in many of Company XIV’s shows, including Queen of Hearts and their Drama Desk Nominated, Seven Sins. With more new music on the way, and goals to one day host SNL, we recommend heading to Bushwick to catch her in action.
