THE LITTLE PRINCE
ONE OF TIME OUT‘S BEST 2019 CHRISTMAS SHOWS FOR FAMILIES
The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or touched,
They are felt with the heart
On a quest to return to the asteroid that he calls home, The Little Prince encounters a stranded pilot and her crashed plane. Their adventure is one that will take you and your family across the galaxy, from the Sahara Desert to the Moon.
The Little Prince lives alone on his planet, frying eggs over volcanoes and weeding baobabs until one day, Rose appears and sparks a journey for The Little Prince to meet the streetwise fox, the king without any subjects and the magical snake who sees all.
Following Omnibus Theatre’s award-winning success of crafting beautiful Winter shows for all ages comes this brilliant blend of enchanting storytelling, delightful puppetry, live music with a dash of festive magic.
Joyously adapted for the stage by critically acclaimed writer Sally Pomme Clayton (“who can bring the wonder of the most powerful stories to life for audiences of any age” The Guardian) and directed by Omnibus Theatre’s Artistic Director Marie McCarthy. Inspired by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s childhood classic, which has sold more than 150 million copies world-wide and been translated into over 300 languages and dialects.
