Magician in Los Angeles: My Article in Voyage LA Magazine
Today we’d like to introduce you to Magical Katrina Kroetch.
Hi Magical Katrina, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
I’d be happy to share my story! My name is Magical Katrina Kroetch, and I’m a female magician and virtual magician based in Los Angeles. I’ve always been fascinated by magic and witches, ever since I was a little girl. I would watch magicians or shows with female magic tropes like witches on TV and try to figure out how they did their tricks or play pretend I was one. When I graduated from high school, I started practicing magic on my own, and I would perform for my friends and family.
After I graduated from the clown conservatory in San Francisco, I decided to pursue magic as a career. I started performing at local events and private parties and gradually built up a reputation as a skilled and entertaining Los Angeles magician. I also started creating my own scripts, jokes, tricks and illusions, which helped set me apart from other Los Angeles magicians or female magicians in the area.
Over time, I began booking larger and more prestigious gigs, including corporate events and even a few celebrity parties. I also started to incorporate storytelling and humor into my performances, which helped me connect with audiences on a deeper level.
Today, I’m proud to say that I’m one of the top female magicians in Los Angeles. I continue to perform at a variety of events, and I’m always working on new tricks and illusions to wow my audiences. It’s been a long and challenging journey, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. I love being a magician, and I feel incredibly lucky to be able to do what I love every day.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
No, it definitely hasn’t been a smooth road. Like any career, being a magician comes with its own set of challenges and obstacles. One of the biggest struggles I faced early on as a magician in Los Angeles was simply getting started. Magic is a male-dominated field, and there weren’t many female magicians for me to look up to or learn from. It was tough to break into the industry and make a name for myself.
Another challenge was learning how to market myself effectively. As a performer, it’s not enough to just be good at what you do – you also need to know how to sell yourself and promote your brand. It took me some time to figure out the best way to market myself and attract clients as a female magician in Los Angeles.
Of course, there are also the day-to-day challenges of being a performer. Performing magic requires a lot of practice and preparation, and there have been times when I’ve struggled to balance my workload and stay on top of everything.
But despite these challenges, I’ve never lost my passion for magic. I love what I do, and I’m always eager to take on new challenges and push myself to be the best female magician in Los Angeles that I can be.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
As a magician, my main focus is on creating amazing and unforgettable experiences for my audiences. I specialize in being a Virtual Magician, Strolling Magician, Wedding Magician, close-up magician and stage magician and mentalist, and I’m known for my ability to blend traditional magic techniques with comedy, storytelling and humor to create a truly immersive experience for my audiences.
One of the things that sets me apart from other Los Angeles magicians is my dedication to crafting original tricks and illusions. I spend a lot of time thinking about how to create new and unique experiences for my audiences, and I’m always experimenting with different techniques and approaches.
I’m also very proud of the fact that I’m a female magician in Los Angeles in a field that is still largely dominated by men. I think it’s important for young girls to see women succeeding in non-traditional roles, and I hope that I can serve as a positive role model for others who are interested in pursuing a career in magic.
In terms of what I’m most proud of, I would say that it’s the fact that I’ve been able to build a successful career doing something that I love. Magic is a difficult and competitive field, but I’ve been able to carve out a niche for myself and establish myself as one of the top magicians in Los Angeles. It’s incredibly rewarding to be able to share my passion for magic with others and bring joy and wonder into people’s lives.
Another thing I am proud of is my TV appearances. Being on television shows like Penn and Teller’s Fool Us and Masters of Illusion was a huge honor for me. It’s a great feeling to be recognized by my peers in the industry and to have the opportunity to showcase my skills to a wider audience. It was also a lot of fun to be part of those shows and to meet other talented magicians from around the world. I’m definitely proud of those experiences and grateful for the opportunities they’ve brought my way.

If someone is interested in booking me for a private event, corporate function, or any other kind of performance, they can reach out to me through my website or social media channels. I’m always happy to discuss potential opportunities and work with clients to create a customized performance that meets their specific needs.
For companies or organizations that are interested in partnering with me on a project, I’m open to collaborations and sponsorships. I’ve worked with a variety of companies in the past, creating branded content and promotional materials that incorporate magic and illusion.
