When he travels to Earth, he forms a deep bond with a stranded pilot, sharing stories of his adventures and his wish to be reunited with his beloved rose. With a whimsical libretto by Nicholas Wright and an enchanting score by Academy Award-winning film composer Rachel Portman (Emma, Chocolat, The Ciderhouse Rules), The Little Prince is an engaging and transporting opera experience for audiences of all ages whether or not they grew up with the novella.
