Kat began singing lessons at 11 after being cast as a “tango dancing fish” in her school play—a twist of fate that sparked a lifelong love of performing. While studying music at Sussex University, she worked with the BREMF Community Choir and made her recording debut on Musica Secreta’s Lucrezia Borgia’s Daughter, later performing on BBC Radio 3. In the Netherlands, Kat earned her Masters at FONTYS and founded ensembles The Wandering Bard and Nymphes & Monstres, creating innovative projects. She also founded The Cauldron, producing musicals and teaching, and recently debuted her first musical, Nun the Wiser.

She has established herself as a performer and educator working in the fields of music, theatre, and voice acting. In her performance practice, she focusses on bringing history to life and making it relevant for contemporary audiences. With her ensemble Nymphes et Monstres, she blends historically informed performance practice with acting, movement, and other forms of media to bring the past to life in a socially relevant context.

Kat is an active member of the Dutch Historical Acting Collective, and works as a freelance voice actor. She also releases her own music, played on a mountain dulcimer and occasionally a merlin seagull, unique and interesting sounding folk instruments. She is also a member of the post punk band Sensory Ick.

As founder and director of Musical Theatre Company The Cauldron, Kat creates work for theatre performers, and focusses on bringing new commissions to life. She is also the director of Eurokoor Nederland, a pop choir whose mission is to bring countries together through music, and The Cauldron Choir of Amsterdam, an educational choir who perform Showtunes in Amsterdam.

Kat is also an educator, with over a decade’s worth of experience teaching singers to unlock their musicality, and find their voices. She teaches on Mondays at The Parlour, an educational collective based in De Pijp, Amsterdam.
