Kyla Booth Lucking

Can’t believe my luck to be crossing town and spot the event in full flow. Today was too busy with pitches and shows that I couldn’t go for the full event but wow the buzz in the entrance as everyone was getting coffee was 👌and of course treat to have 5 mins catch up with Marketing and on sales superstar @dawn.onsalegroup #onsaleliv

Just some slightly rubbish snaps that pick out some highlights from the @artsprofessional.co.uk Business of the Arts conference - the blue pic with its quote from author Soraya Chemaly shared by @centreforculturalvalue made my day! And the astronaut pic from John Knell definitely gave me the most wry laugh! #artsleadership

I can’t believe it’s #two decades since I began my full time #artistic journey here in the UK ! It feels surreal that it’s been #20 years ..& what better way than to #dance it all out :-)!! Extra grateful that it also co-incides with my Guru Udupi laxminaryana Master’s 100 birth centenary year 🙏🙏 Sometimes everything does align ☝️as I present ‘Ameya-Boundless’ @bhavanlondon on 7th June, 2026.. so chuffed that my long-time collaborators, @vamshikrishnavishnudas @vijayvenkatmusic @jalatharan , Bala sir, @shaneshambhu — my supporters, well-wishers, friends, artists…most importantly people whose ‘artistry’ I respect & each of them are there for a reason …beyond an social media post can convey 😇 they have inspired me, propelled me, led me, cared for me, supported me, performed with me, always been there for me! Sharing the stage with them is precious & emotional. An extra bonus is — presenting my senior most students -my dearies — who have enabled multiple learnings for me as their teacher @gradshrey_a99 @sharuki_sivarajah @rachna.karthik @anisri721 , Ananya harihar & Nishtha tiwary - will be opening the evening ! …do join in as we celebrate years of sadhana& immersion 🙏 3cheers to @josieproto for the lovely design & thank you @kalaimamaniyoga sir for the amazing captures 🙏 heartfelt thanks to @duttasanjeevini @kadam_dance for the instant support ! Link in my bio for booking… 🙏

Taking a precious day out to get new ideas and provocations to apply to our strategic work with artists and organisations in these turbulent times. #businessoftheartssummit @artsprofessional.co.uk

Some fascinating insights, ideas and reflections already at @thestageuk #FutureofTheatre conference - photo dump! So far emerging themes are innovation, simple solves to big problems, faster cycling of reflecting on new projects and approaches, trying to be positive and adapt in the face of decline and challenge

Must be a sort of immersive audience experience to start the day 😜 #danceprogrammer #danceproducer #artsevaluator #danceleader

Looking forward to connecting with our friends’ South East Dance’s Wayfinding Artists @southeastdance this evening. So many people showed up for us when we were young artists/producers so at Clearcut we always aim to show up for following generations artistdevelopment #strategicdancesupport #dancefan

Had such a rich and nourishing afternoon listening to so many inspirational women writers and authors yesterday @forthwrite_ festival yesterday so many ideas and provocations and encouragements - don’t wait for permission to be creative, don’t write what you know - write what you don’t understand, the lives of women are full and messy, they deserve stories and protagonists that explore this #artsinbrightonandhove #womenwriters
