“It is only with the heart that one can see rightly,” so advises the lead character in “The Little Prince” playing Aug. 5-7 in the Edward K. Daniels Auditorium on Southern State Community College’s Central Campus, 100 Hobart Drive, Hillsboro. Friday and Saturday show times are 7:30 p.m., while Sunday’s matinee performance will begin at 3:30 p.m.  “The Little Prince” is a show for all ages and perfect for the whole family.

Written by Rick Cummins and John Scoullar, “The Little Prince” tells the story of a world-weary and disenchanted aviator whose sputtering plane strands him in the Sahara Desert. A mysterious little man appears and asks him to “Please, sir, draw me a sheep.” During their two weeks together in the desert, the Little Prince (portrayed by Matthew Waits) tells the Aviator (Alex Dudley) about his adventures through the galaxy, talking to everyone he meets. From each person he meets, he gains a unique insight which he shares with the Aviator: “What is essential is invisible to the eye.” At length, both the Little Prince and the Aviator must go home each with a new understanding of how to laugh, cry and love again.

Directed by Rainee Angles and stage managed by Kat Castle, “The Little Prince” also features the talents of Carrie Chalker (Rose), Gregory Lawson (King), Quinn Pickering-Polstra (Conceited Man), Christopher Dudley (Businessman), Mark Holmes (Lamplighter), Leslie Holmes (Geographer), Lindsey Tolle (Snake), Kia Armstrong (Desert Flower), Honey Smith (Fox), Kelly Lay (Sketch Artist), as well as ensemble members Hannah Hengler, Aidan Holmes, Emma Horick, Harley Griffith, Mariah Lewis, Asher Smith, Clara White, and Micah White. Crew members include Abe Martin (technical director), Laura Martin (costume designer), Benjamin Gullett (PR manager), Brent Angles, Megan Marvin, Seth Potts, Haley Tolle, Jacob Ellison, Kayla Keidel, Samantha Manns, and Cheyenne Wilson.
