Jordan King is a musical theatre performer and choreographer based in Seattle. Born in St. Louis, he discovered a love for performance at a young age.

Jordan’s love of theatre and dance comes from the rich and dynamic stories that are told with the intercommunication between language, music, and body. As a performer and choreographer, Jordan strives to showcase the wide range of the relatable human experience, both authentic and caricatural, with a combination some or all of these mediums.
