✨ SOMETHING VERY EXCITING IS COMING TO STRAIGHT UP… ✨

We are SO excited to welcome Kim Thursfield to Straight Up for an exclusive 6-week programme, working with our Saturday Theatre students to build their confidence, develop their performance skills and get them AUDITION READY! 🎭🎤🌟

And the best part? They’ll be learning from someone who knows the industry from both sides of the audition room. 👀

Performer. Vocal Coach. Author. Talent Agent. Creative.

Kim has spent more than 18 years working across the performing arts industry, with experience spanning professional performance, vocal coaching, teaching, casting, talent representation, producing and directing.

🎭 Trained at the prestigious Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts from the age of 12
🎤 Performed professionally across the UK and internationally
✨ Performed at The BRIT Awards
🎶 Worked in UK tours, pantomime and international productions
💃 Performed alongside James & Ola Jordan from Strictly Come Dancing
🎤 Qualified vocal coach with years of experience developing young performers
📖 Author of The Future Performer
⭐ And now working within the industry as a Talent Agent Kim Thursfield Talent Agency

Over the six weeks, Kim will be bringing all of that experience into the room with our students — helping them understand what makes a performer stand out, how to approach auditions with confidence and how to show their individuality rather than simply trying to be “perfect”.

Because being audition-ready isn’t just about being able to sing, act or dance.

It’s about walking into a room and being confident enough to BE SEEN. 🌟

We cannot wait for our students to have this opportunity.

6 WEEKS. REAL INDUSTRY KNOWLEDGE. AUDITION READY. 🔥

Let’s go, Straight Up. 💛

🚀 NEW WEBSITE AND REBRAND LAUNCHING SOON! 🚀

I’m so excited and incredibly proud to see everything we’ve been working on finally coming together so beautifully. 🤩

It’s been eight years since KTTA was born, and when I look back at everything that has been achieved in that time, I honestly feel so proud. What started as a tiny agency has grown into something truly marvellous, and this new website feels like such an exciting next chapter! ✨

I can’t wait to share it all with you… coming soon! 🚀💫
