Children and families
Shows, events, and activities for children and families – including early years. Ignite the creativity of your children to help them grow, learn and have fun!
Overview
Children
We present performances, produce our own shows and run activities in theatres, libraries, and community venues across Leicestershire. This includes an exciting annual festival taking place each year. Activities can range from one-off sessions to longer recurring projects, featuring drama, music, storytelling, and creativity.
Early years
We don’t leave out younger children here at The Spark. Our exciting early years events are perfect for children under four. Children’s experiences in the early years are crucial to their later educational success. We offer a number of projects across the region. Some of these events are ‘drop-in’ and some are bookable. All of the available sessions are listed on the events page.
