“The ensemble of James Maxfield, Kat Hoyos, Dion Bilios and Catty Hamilton, who take on the roles of the other Sister Muses along with Sirens, singers, gods and Mythical creatures, have a wonderful energy and inject individuality and personality to their characters.”

Broadway World

 

Welcome to the dance section! 

“I’m an active member of the dance industry both on and offstage. I’ve trained at the Johnny Young Talent School in Melbourne and both Jane Scali Performing Arts and Brent Street in Sydney, Australia. My strengths are musical theatre, jazz/commercial, salsa and samba.

I have worked as a creative director for major events through The Star Casino (VIP and NYE events) and as a choreographer for corporate entertainment, special events, fashion shows, TVCs, music clips, launches and clubs throughout Australia and Internationally.

 I’ve made dance appearances on the MTV and Aria Awards, Mornings (Channel 9), The Australian Open Tennis final, The Helpmann Awards, Sunrise (Channel 7), Hey Hey It’s Saturday (Channel 9), and Dancing with The Stars (Channel 10).

 I have been fortunate to combine both my acting and dance skills with my work and am up with current casting networks in this area.

 Get in touch if you would like to chat about an upcoming event or need onscreen direction for choreography and movement.” – Kat
