Are you going to see ‘The Little Prince’? Do you have your tickets yet? Do let me know how it is. There really is nothing better than performances based on books or stories, for young and old alike. For young audiences, a pre-reading of the book can help with understanding the narrative structure of the theatre production and bring the book to life in a way that is magical and will stay with them forever.
With its timeless message about the importance of friendship, The Little Prince is an adventure story that celebrates the richness of human feeling and imagination.
