Theatre closures due to coronavirus outbreak


From Saturday 15 August 2020, indoor performances at London theatres are allowed (with social distancing).


Outdoor performances (where possible) can also go ahead.


However, most theatres remain closed as they either do not have outside spaces or regard the need for social distancing as uneconomic.


The show below will not currently be playing and is scheduled to close by 15 August 2020 (when theatres can reopen for indoor performances).


Original performance dates are given below and reflect any changes we know about.

Show details

Synopsis


The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or touched,


They are felt with the heart.


On a quest to save the asteroid that he calls home, The Little Prince encounters a stranded pilot and her crashed plane.


Their adventure is one that will take you and your family across the galaxy, from the Sahara Desert to the Moon.


Following Omnibus Theatre's award-winning success of crafting beautiful Winter shows for all ages comes The Little Prince, a brilliant blend of enchanting storytelling, delightful puppetry, live music and a dash of festive magic.


Meet the wise Snake who speaks in riddles, the streetwise Fox who won't be tamed and the lost Pilot in need of a friend.


Will the pilot fix her plane?


Will the Little Prince ever see Rose again?


Can your imagination unlock the galaxy?
