We’re excited to officially launch the first programme of The Creative Express 2026 — the Morning Programme, returning this summer with a bold new theme: Wild Worlds.

Following the success of previous editions of The Creative Express, this year’s programme builds on everything that has come before while pushing the journey forward — creatively, educationally, and imaginatively.

From All the World is a Stage to Wild Worlds

In 2025, All the World is a Stage invited children to see the world as a place of stories, performance and expression. It was a celebration of imagination, collaboration and confidence-building through the performing arts — and it reaffirmed what The Creative Express does best: holistic, child-centred learning through creativity.

For 2026, we take the next step.

Wild Worlds expands that vision by moving beyond the stage and into the environments that shape stories, cultures and movement. This year, students don’t just perform in worlds — they explore, inhabit and transform them.

What is Wild Worlds?

The Creative Express 2026 Morning Programme explores a selection of Earth’s most dynamic habitats, using them as creative springboards for performance, play and discovery:

Deserts — contrast, silence and survival
Grasslands & Savannas — rhythm, repetition and the circle of life
Mountains & Highlands — journeys, legends and transformation

Each habitat becomes a living stage, inspiring drama, music, movement, storytelling and hands-on learning.

As always, the programme is carefully structured to balance creativity with curiosity, allowing children to explore ideas physically, emotionally and intellectually — all within a nurturing, age-appropriate environment.

A Holistic Morning Programme

Running across Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings, the programme blends:

Drama, Music, Singing and Movement
Arts & Crafts, Science and Geography
Mindfulness and educational outings

This integrated approach is at the heart of The Creative Express: learning that feels playful and exciting, while developing confidence, communication skills, collaboration and self-expression.

Why We Launch the Morning Programme First

The Morning Programme is the foundation of The Creative Express. It’s where new families discover the project, returning students deepen their engagement, and the creative tone for the summer is set.

As the first programme to launch for 2026, it reflects our long-term vision: building a summer experience that grows year on year, offering multiple pathways for children and young people to engage with the performing arts in meaningful ways.

More Creative Express programmes will be announced soon.
