The Little Prince
by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Adapted by Rick Cummins & John Scoullar
“It is only with the heart that one can see rightly. What is essential is invisible to the eye.”
In this adaptation of one of the most popular children’s stories of all time, a world-weary Aviator finds himself stranded in the Sahara Desert. There he meets a mysterious “little man,” whose tales of adventure across the galaxy reignite the Aviator’s sense of childhood passion and teach him to see life through the eyes of a child.
The Little Prince was performed in 2023 at Player’s Club of Swarthmore.
