The Little Prince will play the final performance of its limited Broadway engagement on Sunday, May 8, 2022 at the Broadway Theatre (1681 Broadway at 53rd Street). Based on Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's timeless novella, the production is set to continue on its international tour, with more information to be announced soon.

Following runs in Paris, Sydney, and Dubai, this new telling of one of The Little Prince, the best-selling and most translated books ever published, comes home to New York in a stage production filled with theatrical spectacle, dance, aerial acrobatics, and ground-breaking video mapping technology that bring the classic adventure story loved by generations to life.

Arriving in New York City on the cusp of World War II, the exiled French author and aviator Antoine de Saint-Exupéry wrote and illustrated The Little Prince in 1942 while residing between a Manhattan townhouse and the historic Delamater-Bevin Mansion on the north shore of Long Island. The now-classic was first published in the United States in 1943.

The award-winning creative team for The Little Prince is led by director and choreographer Anne Tournié, with librettist and co-director by Chris Mouron; original music by Terry Truck; video design by Marie Jumelin; costume design by Peggy Housset; lighting design by Stéphane Fritsch; sound design by Tristan Viscogliosi; video projection by Etienne Beaussart; hair and makeup design by Carmen Arbues Miro; and props design by Aureìlie Gandilhon.
