Arts Initiatives
Music:
LEAP is an initiative by FRONTSTAGE Entertainment created to meaningfully support emerging creation in Greece. Through financial support, mentorship, and educational opportunities, LEAP provides talented creators with the space, tools, and confidence they need to develop and evolve their work.
Through LEAP, Frontstage supports artists at critical early stages of their creative journey — from shaping their material and collaborating with producers, to guiding the overall direction of their projects and addressing practical matters such as distribution, legal issues, and rights management.
Above all, LEAP stands alongside artists, offering guidance for the next steps in their careers while protecting and encouraging artistic freedom.

Education Initiatives:
Kids Radio Welcomes the Schools of Greece!
At FRONTSTAGE Entertainment, we believe in the power of education and the joy of sharing knowledge. As part of our Initiatives, we are opening the doors of the Kids Radio Studio to schools across the country, offering students a unique opportunity to experience the exciting world of radio up close.
Every school visit to Kids Radio is a special experience. The beloved, award-winning children's book author, Antonis Papatheodoulou, has collaborated with us to design a creative program tailored to the needs and age level of every class. We ensure that every visit is as educational as it is entertaining!
The Kids Radio team—with our beloved producers Fani, Nikos, and Mia—magically brings the history of radio to life.
The children get the chance to sit behind the microphones and become the stars! At FRONTSTAGE Entertainment, we are proud to contribute to shaping the next generation of radio listeners—and who knows? Perhaps even the producers of the future!
Would you like to visit us? Fill out the contact form, and we will get back to you shortly to coordinate your visit based on the different age-appropriate programs we have designed (suitable for children from preschool up to the final years of elementary school).
