With many years of real world experience, Katherine Rhodes is well versed in the art of magic as both a skilled close up performer and established cabaret/stage magician. She is a member of the world famous The Magic Circle and has been called to membership of the Inner Magic Circle with Gold Star, the society's highest degree and only awarded to 300 people worldwide. Whether mingling at a private function or with diners at a restaurant, Katherine's natural, humourous close up performance style can easily blend in and create wonder and amazement among the guests as the laws of physics are cast aside and the impossible is made a reality.
Many can testify to the extraordinary feats of magic and mind reading performed by Katherine in cabaret. Her shows are polished and professional and always performed with a heavy emphasis on humour and fun. For ten years Katherine had the honour of being the resident magician at the historic Wilton's Music Hall in London, reviving the tradition of magical entertainment on that stage and being the first professional magician to be resident there since the late 1800's. She is extremely proud to have played a part in saving this historic venue for future generations.
As well as her performance skills Katherine has acted as a magical advisor and designer on many projects from small local theatres to the West End stage and from pop videos to film and television. Producing the whole cast of a play one by one from a wardrobe centre stage, producing singer Marc Almond from an empty coffin for a Halloween special, recreating blue screen camera trickery for real in a Doctor Who spin off, making money that bursts into flames and flaming torches that turn into flowers for music videos - all challenges that have been set and met with great results.
Whether you need a performer for a small, intimate gathering or a full-blown show for your corporate function, Katherine can help. From banquets in stately homes to impromptu cabarets in wine bars or anything in between, all events can be accommodated.
"Fabulous performance, she is very professional and capable. Everyone was impressed.
I only wishes it could last longer"
If you are looking for a magician and mind reader who can entertain all age groups then look no further. Katherine was very slick, had a good repertoire which suited young and old alike (ours was a mixed generation group), was funny and quick witted and very entertaining. In addition she was very flexible and obliging in terms of set up and performance times. She can I am sure also suit her performance to a specific group.
