DANGER & DARING FEATS
Katie Trickett is a sideshow specialist and has performed in over 25 countries, represented the UK in variety showcases in South Korea, on cruise ships, theatres and on TV. From cabaret to corporate events Katie adapts and tailors her skills to suit any audience making her an ideal and unusual addition to any event!
Sideshow isn't a magic act- these are daring feats and danger acts. These acts are 100% genuine and Katie has spent many years training and researching this area of the entertainment industry to develop her exciting presentation of these skills. Many of these acts involve real life danger so please do not try to copy any of Katie's performances at home. However despite the danger and mild peril element often involved the danger show is family friendly and suitable for all audience types.
