Beautiful, slim, with a wasp waist and green eyes, Roxana Ivanciu attracted, since her arrival in the Oradea troupe, both the attention of the directors and the visible sympathy of the audience. Her attire and figure recommended her for both dramatic and comedic roles. She would soon prove that she had the ability to successfully cover all registers. Proof that, in the same season, she interpreted with the charm of youth, a little girl (Alice) in the show "Across Seven Seas and Seven... Fairy Tales" by Gheorghe Stana and the Fairy of the Lake, but also a successful composition (Baba Rada) in the show "Sânziana and Pepelea" by Vasile Alecsandri. She was not only "a splash of color", but also a surprising appearance in a character invented by the director, in the show "The Chairs" by Eugen Ionescu. About her role – a girl the actress's age – in the show "Hollywood Story" by Neil Simon, a columnist wrote that she was not only easygoing, but also warm, naive, childish enough, in a happy artistic couple with the maestro Ion Mâinea, who played the role of the Father and at the same time directed the show. Mircea Morariu saw in her "a promising actress".

Her volcanic temperament was highlighted, especially in the role of Martirio in Federico Garcia Lorca's "The House of Bernarda Alba" and in that of Phoenicia in Plautus' "Pseudolus", but the performances did not have a very positive echo, nor did they gather many performances, so the performances - even the meritorious ones - quickly entered the shadow cone of oblivion.

In the role of Rosalind (as you like it by William Shakespeare), she added a wave of poetry to the character, her evolution being noted by the critic Dumitru Chirilă, who identified "signs of encouragement" in the actress's evolution. The future proved that he was right, as the actress continued to add exceptional roles to her artistic profile at the "Toma Caragiu" Theatre in Ploieşti in performances praised by the press.

Invited by George Ivaşcu, she collaborates with the Metropolis Theater in Bucharest.
