May 12, 2015Amazing!
Kate is truly an entertainer. She performed for us during the Canadian Music Week trade show as a living doll and completely stunned the attendees. Her moves were impeccable, and she made us laugh so much that our faces hurt! Her performance was just one of the many incredible acts she's mastered. She was hilarious, personable, and accommodating. I recommend Kate for any and all events. We will definitely hire her again!

What to expect
Kate performs traditional corporeal mime choreography; you won't find any striped-shirt pantomime acts here! Kate's installation acts include a uniquely interactive and engaging music-box wind-up ballerina robot, a saucy living-statue and stage take on Marie Antoinette (complete with cake-eating and machete juggling!), static statue art, a roving portrait that balances a picture frame on her chin and object manipulation of various objects including a giant umbrella. Kate performs anything from roving entertainment to feature acts and can tailor-make work to suit your event. She is an engaging and dynamic performer with impressive costumes and skill and would be an incredible addition to make your event shine and be the talk of the town!
