GOLTSMAN BALLET STUDIO and young composer MIHHAEL GOLTSMAN present the fairy-tale ballet for children, by children:
“THE LITTLE PRINCE”
“…You are responsible, forever, for what you have tamed… You are responsible for your rose…”
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s famous tale The Little Prince, filled with wisdom and kindness, inspired us to create a ballet where fantasy and reality intertwine in the magic of music and dance.
Original music for this production was composed especially by the young composer Mihhael Goltsman. Soulful music, neoclassical dance, vivid costumes, and enchanting stage design take the audience on a journey across planets, where the Little Prince meets extraordinary characters and discovers essential truths about devotion, friendship, and love.
A familiar story is reimagined through the language of dance and music, capturing the hearts of audiences of all ages.
“The main directions in my music are purity and kindness,” says composer Mihhael Goltsman.
“For us, The Little Prince is a very special experience. We are creating it in close collaboration with our theatre’s artists and students of the studio. The children bring so much sincerity and imagination into their roles that every scene comes alive with their energy. The stage awakens through their dance. I admire how well the students convey complex emotions and the story’s deep meaning through movement and music,” adds artistic director Maria Goltsman.
On stage are both professional artists of Goltsman Ballet and the students of Goltsman Ballet Studio.
The performance will captivate all who love music, dance, art, and theatre—and who are ready to join the Little Prince on his magical journey among the stars.
