The Spark - At Your School
Tuesday 19 May to Friday 22 May 2026
World class music, dance and theatre curated especially for Leicester and Leicestershire schools.
Les-tah to the Front
Created by acclaimed theatre makers Brigitte Aphrodite and Quiet Boy and co-created with the children of Leicester, this show brings the new spirit of empathetic punk straight to your school. Expect an inclusive, high energy show where music, movement and imagination collide.
Children will help the Boogie Woogie Space Junk Band on their mission to find their supersonic space pig Brian and launch their debut electro punk album into the stratosphere. Every performance is unique, celebrating the magic, individuality and creativity of your pupils.
Commissioned and co-produced by The Spark Arts for Children, this show champions self expression, rhythm and togetherness because no matter how our brains and bodies move through life, music is the heartbeat that connects us all.
”It tied in with our PSHE curriculum and reinforced the powerful messages around being yourself and having confidence in your differences!
