Bring The Stringcredibles to your own school hall for a world-class musical performance!
We offer an uplifting alternative to a school trip, which is easy to manage
(and no need to book a coach!)
Our shows are created especially for primary school audiences.
They are a fantastic way to introduce children to the incredible world of classical music,
with themes that complement learning and enhance wellbeing.
We perform in primary schools
in Birmingham, the West Midlands and beyond…
Our performances and in-school workshops bring exceptional classical music
direct to your school hall.
We embed interactivity within our shows and offer chance to ask questions at the end
(we’ve had everything from questions about performing internationally, to queries about our table tennis skills!)
