Toronto adaptation of 'The Little Prince' was written by and for the deaf community

'The Little Prince' reimagined in deaf-led physical theatre adaptation 6 hours ago Duration 2:42 Social Sharing A Toronto theatre is running an adaption of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's whimsical tale The Little Prince with a script written especially for the deaf community, and performed entirely by a deaf cast. The Little Prince: A Physical Theatre Adaptation at the Theatre Passe Muraille was created and written by Landon Krentz, a deaf artist who stars as the play's titular character. "This project is very special. It's very special to my heart," he told CBC Toronto. "It's about how we look for external solutions. We seek these things, but sometimes we have to look inward." The show combines vertical dancing on roles and harnesses with projection technology and visual vernacular, an art form that combines movement mime and American Sign Lanuage (ASL). The show runs April 19. Tickets are priced on a sliding scale.
