Spark & The Laws of Healing is the perfect performance for the college circuit and small-mid-size venues. It is a one-woman show and spoken word performance with music composed by talented composer Leo Crandall. Spark is a poignant musical odyssey centered on the theme of healing and finding a way back to a life rooted in wholeness. Spark is rare and intimate celebration of one-woman's transformative power over breast cancer. Sparks unusual approach to spoken word utilizes music, rhythmic narration, and movement.
