Event Details

Finally see The Amazing Martika the One Woman Stunt Show in-person with her amazing acts of daring.

Martika is an international variety entertainer based in Kansas City, MO. She is the C.E.O. of KC Entertainment Services, LLC.

Born into a military family, Martika began traveling the world at a young age. This exposure to international performers sparked her interest in the circus arts, and at the age of 8 she ignited her passion for the performing arts through training in jazz dance and classical ballet. Her passion for dance flourished when she discovered hula hooping.

Constantly looking to push herself, in 2008 Martika sought out the best international teachers in fire arts, escapology, and sideshow danger stunts to further her knowledge. Along her path to being an entertainer Martika also went to one of the top community colleges in Kansas, Johnson County Community College, to acquire her veterinary technician degree. She no longer works as a parasitologist in a corporate laboratory. She is Kansas City’s only women sword swallower and the only one woman stunt show of her kind in the Midwest.

Martika has since been featured on numerous local news outlets such as Fox 4 News KC and Lawrence Business Magazine. She travels solo around the world performing one woman shows. She also teaches a variety of workshops, including at the top international yoga festivals. Martika graces the audience with her playful charm. Don't let this fool you... from hula hooping with barbed wire to eating fire, her spectacular show will make the audience laugh and leave them asking... "HOW DID SHE DO THAT!? I want to see more!"

We are located at 831 S 55th St, Kansas City, Kansas, 66106.
