Search for the Missing Sparkle
Search for the Missing Sparkle tells the story of a little fairy who has lost her sparkle. The one thing that makes her smile from the inside out a lot.
“You have your magic inside of you and when you’re ready the world will see. How magical you are and how wonderful life can be”
The story begins as the fairy sets off with just her suitcase as her guide and takes you on all on her journey to look for it. On her path to sparkle again she encounters a robin, a bunny and a fish who burst into life showing you all what makes them happy and discover where her sparkle has been hiding all along.
Sally Ann Staunton brings you these original stories bursting with poetic narration, live music, catchy songs, silly dancing and sensory theatre. An immersive show that gets to the heart of finding what makes us all sparkle. Supported using public funding by Arts Council England. Taking place at:
Tuesday 24th February, 10.30am-11.30am – Rothwell Community Hub and Library
Tuesday 24th February, 1.30pm-2.30pm – Crossgates Library (in Crossgates Shopping Centre)
A pay-what-you-decide family-friendly event recommended for children aged 3+. All children must be accompanied an adult.
