About the Show

December 10, 2022 - February 5, 2023

By RICK CUMMINS and JOHN SCOULLAR, based on the book by ANTOINE de SAINT-EXUPÉRY, directed by DOMINIQUE SERRAND.

After his plane crashes in the Sahara, a pilot is plotting his survival strategy when a little prince with a gleeful spirit appears. Over the course of a week, the prince tells the pilot tales of his intergalactic travels to various planets, Earth included. Each story sheds new light on their philosophical questions until the two unlikely companions find the answers — and their lives — hanging in the balance. Full of whimsy and wonder, this imaginative fairy tale for the whole family studies the contrast between the innocence of youth and the inevitable realities of adulthood.

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s simple and elegant allegory has been beloved by readers since it first appeared in 1943. He became enamored with aviation while still a boy in France and learned to fly as an air force officer, later transitioning to commercial flights in 1926. Composer This play is one of four adaptations by Rick Cummins and playwright/lyricist John Scoullar. It is directed by Paris native Dominique Serrand, who was the Artistic Director and Co-Founder of the celebrated Theatre de la Jeune Lune in Minneapolis from 1978 to 2008.

Recommended for ages 8 and up.
