So You Think You Can Dance: Robbie White

robbie-white

Robbie White is a multi-talented, a fantastic musician and web designer in his spare time.

Born in August 1987, Robbie grew up in the village of Marple near Stockport. A hyperactive child, Robbie’s parents chose to channel his ebullient energy by sending him to dance, gym and music lessons.

As a child he was a member of the Northern Ballet Theatre Association where he played the role of a young Heathcliff in David Nixon’s Wuthering Heights.

He went on to teach this role to other boys as he got older. During this time, he worked with Les Miserables composer Claude-Michel Schonberg who encouraged him to follow a musical theatre career rather than limit himself to ballet as Claude-Michel thought Robbie was a great all-rounder.

After his AS levels, he went to Laine Theatre Arts and studied a diploma in Musical Theatre. Following his training he worked as a dancer at Disney in Tokyo which was followed by a role in his favourite musical, We Will Rock You, in Germany. He is currently playing the role of Daniel Kublbock.
