Based on Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s The Little Prince, one of the best-selling books of all time, Little Prince, WT*? is a gritty mix of contemporary dance, live drawings, video and dialogue. While depicting the mental shipwreck of a 17-year-old boy and the medicalization of today’s health care, it also reveals the irony in being an adult and shows us how chance and choices guide us on the path towards friendship, love, responsibility and self-awareness.
Ages: Perfect for ages 13 and up
