"The Little Prince" is one of the most famous and beloved literary works, having been translated into more than 250 languages and dialects and adapted to numerous other art forms, including theater. However, the charm that Saint-Exupéry's story exerts on readers does not only transcend linguistic and artistic boundaries, but also a much more significant one on a human level: age. Thus, the adventures of the little boy who wanders the galaxy to discover what love, friendship, loneliness and death mean can be enjoyed equally by both innocent children and adults, even if they always need clarification.

Director Marius Costache managed to recreate the enchanting universe of the story on the stage of the Regina Maria Theater, preserving the specific candor, but also the deeply philosophical side of the opera. The show, therefore, is addressed not only to middle school children, but also to teenagers who are just stepping into another dimension, that of mature people and even adults, who live alone on their own planets and are always absorbed by such trivial things.
