Born and raised in Memphis, TN, Rodney McKinner III is always ready to greet you with a huge smile. After being involved with his church and school choirs at such a young age, Rodney developed a passion for music immediately. As soon as he was introduced to theater in high school, his joy for performing blossomed and he truly fell in love with the stage. 

​

Rodney recently graduated from the University of Oklahoma, where he received his BFA in Musical Theatre. From singing Sondheim to Adele; or acting as the silliest guy on stage, he is an artist who gets excited about tackling all types of work. His ultimate goal when it comes to performing, is to make a strong emotional impact on anyone who views his work.  When he’s not performing, Rodney loves to cook, catch up on some good reality TV, or go on a nice walk.​
