A poetic dance evening that enchants Bonn
With The Little Prince, the NRW Junior Ballet brings an evening to the stage of the Bonn Opera that combines childhood memories, imagery, and the art of dance with rare lightness. The world premiere on April 3, 2027, promises a stage experience that translates Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's timeless tale into a vivid, sensual choreography. The production is designed for the whole family, lasts about 70 minutes, and runs without an intermission. ([theater-bonn.de](https://www.theater-bonn.de/de/tanz/26-27))
When literature becomes movement
The production follows the famous journey of the little prince through deserts, star spaces, and encounters that reveal more about being human than any didactic speech. The NRW Junior Ballet fills this fantastic world with life and shapes from the poetic simplicity of the original a total artwork that elevates friendship, love, and the search for the essential into a powerful dance language.

An ensemble with youthful energy
The NRW Junior Ballet is considered a young company with international appeal and a close connection to the Dortmund Ballet. The ensemble was founded in 2014 and provides young dancers with professional stage experience; in Bonn, it now presents ten performers on the big stage. This evening draws its excitement from precision, youthful presence, and the courage to present a great tale with fresh eyes.

Why this evening resonates
Because it does not lecture the audience but touches them. Because dance here is not just illustration but condenses atmosphere, rhythm, and meaning. The clear structure of the narrative ballet, the symbolic figures, and the poetic imagery promise an evening between wonder and afterthought. Those who love theater atmosphere will experience a concentrated stage experience that does not quickly wear out but remains in memory for a long time.

Anyone wishing to experience an evening full of poetry, movement, and fine symbolism should not miss this world premiere live. ([theater-bonn.de](https://www.theater-bonn.de/de/tanz/26-27))
