Review:
The Cirque du Soleil-like adaptation of the classic The Little Prince at the Broadway Theater soared above my head, but not nearly enough. Anne Tournie’s colorful production featured diverting acrobatics, video projections, and modern dance but lacked the charm and substance of Antoine de Saint-Exupery’s allegorical interplanetary fable.
Miscellaneous:
Critic's Note: This light bubble popped earlier than expected when it closed May 8, months before its original planned closing date.
