What They're Saying

"Spark is a truly fabulous chance for kids to perform at a high level, and gain valuable experience in stage and teamwork. Spark's unique approach--combining university students and adults with youth in a musical theater environment--provides for an experience of rapid growth in theater skills for kids, while creating meaningful relationships with cast members of varying ages. If musical theater is what your child loves, don't miss this rare opportunity!"

"I love The Spark because it gives my child so many options to develop as a performer. She has utilized the dance classes to learn technique and private lessons to prepare for auditions.  The Spark has become an important part of our family."

"His skills and abilities have grown tremendously, as has his sense of responsibility  and his self-worth. As a non-profit, I appreciate that The Spark welcomes all regardless of financial means, with opportunities for scholarships and work exchange. They are dedicated to the arts in Boulder, and I am so happy that our family is part of something special."

"As an eight grader my granddaughter, joined Spark in the fall and has found it a great challenge and support for growing her natural talents. Performance nights she leapt to a new height.  Half the front row was friends, cousins, aunts and uncles.  She was flawless and we were....proud and grateful!"

"We had an amazing experience at The Spark! My teenaged daughter did a show there and we were so impressed with the professional, yet supportive, training and opportunities she had. She was challenged in a part she loved, gained so much confidence, and grew so much as a performer! I would highly recommend The Spark!"
