The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry is a beloved tale of a pilot and a young alien prince that has delighted readers since it was first published in 1943. It has since been translated into more than 250 languages. Even if you know The Little Prince (or Le Petit Prince in its original French) by heart, you have never seen it quite like this!

This 60-minute mini-musical features original music by Wessel Odendaal, under the pen and direction of Elizma Badenhorst. Exupéry illustrated his novel himself and chose to omit any sketches of what the pilot may have looked like. Badenhorst takes her cue from the author and presents the first female pilot in this iconic role.
With timeless charm, this family show tells the story of the Little Prince, who leaves the safety of his own tiny planet to travel the universe, discovering the oddities of adult behaviour through a series of extraordinary encounters. His personal journey culminates in a voyage to Earth and further adventures.

Told through the magic and wonder of live performance, shadow theatre, and Japanese Bunraku puppetry, this is a tale not to be missed by young and old alike.
