About

Embark on a whimsical journey with the Little Prince as he travels the universe, searching for the true meaning of friendship. In a world where grown-ups have forgotten how to see with their hearts, he discovers beauty, wisdom and the importance of human connection.

Toby Thompson's adaptation of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's beloved novel captures its poetic essence and philosophical depth. With his signature style, Thompson brings this enchanting tale to life, inviting audiences to embrace curiosity, wonder and the magic of imagination.

A spellbinding solo performance that reminds us of what truly matters.
