The Little Prince

June 1-3, 7:30pm; June 4, 3pm

UCSC Opera students perform Rachel Portman’s enchanting opera, The Little Prince, along with members of the University Orchestra and members of the Sequoia Symphony. This production includes a special collaboration with El Sistema Pajaro Valley and elementary students from Gilroy and Watsonville joining our cast as birds.

Based on the mysterious fable by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, the opera centers around the story of a pilot, who having crashed in the desert, makes the acquaintance of a prince from a far-off planet and addresses themes of love, identity, and loss.

This family-friendly production is conducted by Bruce Kiesling and directed by Sheila Willey.
Costumes designed by Marisely Cortes.
Hair and makeup by Sharon Ridge.
Set and lighting design by Dave Dunning of Legend Theatrical.
Graphic design by Dina Clark.
