“Thompson is a gently amusing performer, skilled at engaging the attention of a young audience by tapping into their capacity for wonder.” - Stage Talk Magazine ★★★★

“delightful performance that captures the philosophy of Saint-Exupery's original tale, full of zest and humour, to engage both youngsters and grown-ups.” - Bath Chronicle

“Entrancing and enchanting – Toby Thompson’s adaption of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s fable The Little Prince at The Egg is a triumph... magical, thoughtful and entertaining for adults and small children alike.” - Bath Voice 

Embark on a whimsical journey with the Little Prince as he wanders the universe in search of the true meaning of friendship.

Enter a world of endless sunsets, where people are like flowers, and grown-ups are, well, pretty peculiar. They think serious things are silly and silly things are serious. They’ve forgotten how to look with the heart.

Join us on a great adventure to make friends, learn things, and notice the most important things in life.

Toby Thompson’s adaptation of the Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s novel, as philosophical as its original, invites its audience to sense infinite possibility and recognise everything that is beautiful in the world. Performed by Toby Thompson, who brings this enchanting tale to life with his signature style.
