The Peasant Prince

May 13 @ 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM

$20 – $90

Based on the book by Li Cunxin, Illustrated by Anne Spudvilas. Adapted for the stage by Eva Di Cesare, Sandie Eldridge and Tim McGarry.

Prepare to be mesmerised as Monkey Baa’s multi award-winning production “The Peasant Prince” returns to the stage for a limited time.

In a poor village in northern China, Li, a 10-year-old boy is taken away from everything he knows and sent to a ballet academy in the big city. He is afraid, but his mother urges him to follow his dreams.

Based on the children’s version of Li Cunxin’s internationally best-selling memoir, “Mao’s Last Dancer”, this remarkable story of courage, resilience, and unwavering hope, will ignite your dreams and inspire you to be the best person you can be.

Suitable for ages 7 – 12 and their families.
