The arts of Mime and Magic are universally appealing to everyone, crossing all barriers of language and age. If anyone can serve as an example, it is Tina Lenert. She has combined silent comedy with a touch of magic to produce a most unusual and enchanting act in which a very sad and frumpy cleaning lady is magically transformed and finds happiness.Her pantomime skills were honed as a founding member of the L.A. Mime Company, a talented group who performed at colleges and appeared on several television series. Her magic skills were developed by being a regular performer and life member of Hollywood’s Magic Castle, where she was voted Stage Magician of the Year by the Academy of Magical Arts & Sciences.For the past several years, Tina has toured Europe several times, appearing in major theatres including Berlin's Wintergarten, the London Palladium and a performance for the Royal Family in Monte Carlo. She has been featured on television in many European, South American and Asian countries.In the United States she has appeared at Harrah's Reno, Atlantic City and Las Vegas as well as Caesars Palace. On television she has been featured on the Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, and CBS and NBC Specials.Tina Lenert's distinctive blend of magic, mime and music is a sweetly effective Cinderella story in which Lenert subtly transforms from a charwoman to a beauty, thanks to the intervention of a magical mop - a surprisingly effective substitute for Prince Charming. A riveting storyteller, Lenert has the childlike simplicity of a female Red Skelton.The Los Angeles Times
