Embark on a whimsical journey with the Little Prince as he wanders the universe in search of the true meaning of friendship.
Enter a world of endless sunsets, where people are like flowers, and grown-ups are, well, pretty peculiar. They think serious things are silly and silly things are serious. They’ve forgotten how to look with the heart.
Toby Thompson’s adaptation of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s novel, as philosophical as the original, invites audiences to sense infinite possibility and rediscover everything beautiful in the world, as he brings this enchanting tale to life with his signature style—creating a world of endless sunsets, where people are like flowers and grown-ups, well, have forgotten how to look with the heart.
With design by Anisha Fields (I Wish I Was A Mountain, Squirrel) and direction by Nik Partridge (Snow Mouse, Midnight Mole), this adaptation brings together Toby’s trademark whimsical insights into the human condition with his wide-eyed wonder, cheekiness, and zest for life. A tale to lift us out of this world.
