One of the world’s most-beloved and popular children’s stories, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s Le Petit Prince has delighted and captivated millions of readers since it was first published in 1943. Adapted by The National Ballet of Canada (NBC) Principal Dancer and Choreographic Associate Guillaume Côté, Le Petit Prince is the first full-length ballet by a Canadian creative team commissioned by the NBC in twenty years.
Le Petit Prince is both a perfect and a problematic choice. Perfect because the story is already furnished with all the necessary components for a conventional ballet, and problematic because Le Petit Prince is actually a dark and confusing book.
The forty-minute solo by Toronto-based artist Linnea Swan is a comedic and poignant autobiography of the highs and lows of a life and career in dance – starting with having the last name Swan as a young ballerina.
