"The beloved tale told in THE LITTLE PRINCE is a compelling and timeless one" says New Rep Artistic Director, Jim Petosa. "The world of the play and its inhabitants speak eloquently to all audiences, from adults to children, because of its yearning heart and universal accessibility. During the holiday time of year, it was important for us to produce a play that celebrates the joy of artistic programs that encourage intergenerational participation. The spirit of the season is embodied in this imaginative and joyous musical."

"New Repertory Theatre has had the great privilege to work with some of the most enthusiastic and talented artists in the Greater Boston area over the past 30 years," says New Rep Managing Director, Harriet Sheets. "Ilyse Robbins is one of those artists. Her work on the New Rep stage as an actor, director, and choreographer is always lively and engaging. With the fantastic team of actors and designers she's pulled together for this production, there's no doubt that THE LITTLE PRINCE will prove to be an endearing addition to our 30th Anniversary Season."

This holiday season, bring the whole family to an imaginative new take on the beloved novella. THE LITTLE PRINCE tells the story of a world-weary aviator and a mysterious, regal little boy who help each other discover rare and unique insights into love, loss, and laughter. Filled with enchanting music and heartfelt lyrics, it has been touted by critics around the country for its appeal to all ages. This classic parable reminds us that "what is essential is invisible to the eye" and that all grown-ups were once children.
