“Fall in love in my early twenties, get married in my late twenties, have at least one child by the time I’m 30. F**k!”

Life is hard to navigate when you’ve got so many questions. Can I put this jumper in the washing machine? Do you have my birth certificate? Where did you find love?

A story of a kamikaze love affair with unexpected consequences. Hilarious and heart-breaking, SPARKS is a two-hander musical about the brain’s response to grief.

Written by Jessica Butcher, with original music by Anoushka Lucas & directed
by Jessica Edwards.

Running time: 1h

Recommended age: 14+ (contains strong language, scenes related to sex and grief)
