Stage Sparks

For Children

Stage Sparks is a free performing arts program based in the southern suburbs for children aged 5-12 years.

Professional artists highly trained and experienced in working with children lead after-school workshops in theatre, circus, singing and dance. A range of levels offer involvement for the curious beginner to the aspirational artist, supporting children to express themselves creatively while developing their confidence in a safe and fun environment.

At the end of each term, parents and caregivers can attend a performance by the children to share and celebrate their achievements.

Please read and complete the Consent Information for Participants before booking.
