As the first major international touring cast to come to Australia since the industry was shut down by the global pandemic, this spectacular and extraordinary adaptation of the classic French novella, The Little Prince immerses the audience in a unique and innovative stage production that captures the heart and challenges the imagination. 

Director Anne Tournié said “For me, it's a melting pot from around the world and from different cultures, but in the end we are all human with emotions, and the Little Prince is emotion”.

We are excited to be able to launch our 2022 season with a show of this calibre, giving visitors from around Australia a new reason to visit Western Sydney,” said Richard Errington, CEO, West HQ.
