His Name is Kai Kwasi Achegani Thorne. He was born in Guildford
hospital. June 20th 1999. His Mother is English and His Father is Ghanaian
but he lived in England for most of his life.
He
was a definitely a happy child. Always super imaginative, and excited by everything,
which always got him in trouble and is probably why his mum put him in theatre.
He
grew up in Westminster and moved to Lewisham in year 3. After primary school he
attended a performing arts secondary school and after that he joined BRIT
His
favourite project that he worked on would likely have been Homegrown, through
the NYT despite its cancellation and the controversy surrounding that. It
changed his way of thinking and gave him the opportunity to work with some
truly amazing people.
He liked to think that he was funny. It made him happy when he could
make someone else smile or laugh because that was his goal. Happiness. When he
was happy about something he was bouncing off the walls making jokes but when
He wasn’t… he was bouncing around and joking about it anyway.
He really liked art not just paintings art but ART. Films, TV shows,
music, performances in general. Making them, taking part in them or just
experiencing them, that is how he wanted to spend his life. Weather he was good
at any of it is a completely different question. He didn't at all mind being a
rubbish artist who's happy doing what he's doing. Because that was his end
goal. Happiness.
On the 8th of December 2015 Kai committed
suicide by hanging
