She’s collected many friends, poems, stories, photographs and dance moves along the way.
Home is currently Shoreham-by-sea, just along the coast from Brighton where she first started performing poems more than 15 years ago (while studying Anthropology and Spanish!).
Katrina’s work has a strong sense of rhythm, shared with energy, passion and sensitivity. She writes often about belonging, spirituality and connection, inspired by true life stories.
“It’s exciting to watch someone whose poetry has such muscle power and who can communicate a strong personal presence. A poet no one is going to mess with, in other words”
Heathcote Williams
“Katrina’s sensuous blend of spoken word, music and movement is enchanting. Her performance style is delicate, playful, yet ready and willing to dive into deeper waters of vulnerability and grief, holding the audience safely the whole time. Artful and authentic – a rare mix.”
Amelia Armande, Step Up Comission

“Good stuff: The techniques you used to scaffold and support each one of us to start and continue to be creative. You were very sensitive to each person and took time to include and build up everyone”
