Come along to witness the transformative power of personal narrative as The SPARK takes centre stage. Join us for an unforgettable evening at The Blue Room Theatre where young storytellers aged 18-24 illuminate their truths through poetry, performance, and passionate storytelling.

These emerging artists were carefully selected by our team and have embarked on this creative journey under the expert guidance of Ange Yang and Jake Dennis. Through Centre for Stories’ innovative youth program, they’ve developed their unique voices and are now ready to share authentic stories that remind us of our collective strength and the beautiful complexity of lived experience.

More than a performance – this is a celebration of community, connection, and creative courage. Each story represents a personal transformation, inviting you to witness how art can reshape our understanding of ourselves and each other.

Come be part of this vibrant tapestry of youth expression that promises to inspire hope and remind us of all we can achieve together.

The Spark is generously funded by DLGSC and Healthway.
