The long awaited opera of Antoine de St. Exupery's classic tale! Music was composed by Rachel Portman (Emma, Chocolat), the libretti written by Nicholas Wright, and the production directed by Francesca Zambello.
"Draw me a sheep" says the Little Prince to the pilot, who, dazed from the crash, looks quizzically at him. From there we watch and listen to the story with ingenius staging and music, intriguing props and costumes and the clear voices of a children's choir. As the Little Prince prepares to return to his planet, he reassures the pilot that "anything essential is invisible to the eye".
