The Slings & Arrows Players delivered a heartwarming performance of this year's winter play, "The Little Prince," on February 28 and March 1, 2025, in the West Campus Theater. Originally written in French by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry in the mid-20th century, this beloved tale has touched the hearts of children and adults alike for over 80 years. This stage version by Rick Cummins and John Scoullar brings to life the story of a pilot stranded in the Sahara who meets an extraordinary little prince. As the prince recounts his travels across the universe and his encounters with fascinating characters, the play explores themes of love, wonder, and the true meaning of growing up. A timeless reminder that “it is only with the heart that one can see clearly,” The Little Prince continues to inspire audiences of all ages.
The actors and the crew excelled under the guidance of Johnny Ryan ’15, Director of St. Sebastian’s Drama Program. A special thank you to Mr. Skip Wrightson and the members of the Animation Club for their great work. Congratulations to all for a job well done!
