Experience the show before official opening night! These preview performances are a chance for our team to fine-tune the show based on audience feedback. It's the full production, presented to learn how it resonates with viewers like you. The best part is that you decide what to pay! See the show and contribute whatever feels right for you. It's theatre on your terms, and your presence helps us make the show even better.

Vibrant Storytelling with a New Generation.

Stranded in the Sahara after a crash, a disillusioned pilot meets a mysterious young boy who calls himself the Little Prince. As they bond, the boy recounts his journey across distant planets, where he encountered a lonely king, a vain man, and a geographer obsessed with facts. Through these whimsical tales, the pilot is reminded of the beauty of innocence, the pain of love, and the absurdity of adulthood. This enchanting tale invites audiences to rediscover the world through the eyes of a child and find meaning in the invisible.

"It is only with the heart that one can see rightly."
