An aviator descends from the sky to find himself in the middle of the desert where he meets the Little Prince who has flown from one planet to another in search of a sheep. An omnipresent narrator imparts the indispensable verbal truths integral to the story, accompanying the Little Prince on his journey as he meets many incredible characters who communicate gracefully through dance, gesture and movement.

More than 75 years after its release, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s The Little Prince remains one of the best-selling and most translated books ever published. It has been translated into over 300 languages and dialects, and has sold an estimated 140 million copies.

Director and Choreographer Anne Tournié said, “I see it as a melting pot from around the world and from different cultures but, in the end, we are all human with emotions, and the Little Prince is emotion.”

The Little Prince is presented by Broadway Entertainment Group – the world’s first theatrical distribution company to consolidate an international circuit and bring top quality entertainment to Europe, United Kingdom, Middle East, North America and Asia – in association with Sokol Entertainment.
