Prinzens on Air: When lines create whole worlds
An airplane crash in the Sahara, a mysterious counterpart, and the request Draw me a sheep: In Prinzens on Air, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's famous tale meets a poetic stage adaptation by Sven Grunert. On Friday, November 6, 2026, the small theater - KAMMERSPIELE Landshut opens its doors for an unusual stage experience about imagination, identity, friendship, and hope.
A production between acting, drawing, and music
Two actors and a performance artist tell, act, draw, and interact directly with one another. From a few lines, characters, landscapes, and memories grow before the eyes of the audience. The production combines acting, drawing, music, and storytelling into a flowing theatrical event, where narrative levels and characters continuously transform.
The little prince as an inner voice
Director Sven Grunert places the little prince not only as a literary figure at the center. He appears as that inner child that preserves wonder, questions, and a playful openness. The stage adaptation loosely based on Antoine de Saint-Exupéry takes us from asteroid B 612 across six planets into the desert, opening a poetic perspective on perception, relationship, and the uniqueness of the Other.
A stage design full of traces and memories
The central prop of the production is a shattered airplane made of ladders, which is covered with plastic. The stage design also refers to the collaboration with the deceased set designer Helmut Stürmer. Lighting design, costumes, and the physically precise direction create a theatrical atmosphere where every gesture gains significance, and the stage space continually takes on a new form.
Poetic theater for adults
Prinzens on Air sees itself as a poetic theater experiment for adults. The prince, the princess, the prince: Identities are not fixed but arise in the moment of encounter. The unusual language and playform connect philosophical questions with sensual stage art and invite the audience to discover themselves in the Other.
Press voices on the production
The feedback so far emphasizes the remarkable production, the physical presence and empathy of Nicola Trub and Andreas Sigrist, as well as the poetic power of the stage space. Particular praise was given to Trub's expressive body language, Sigrist's reflective gaze, and the concentrated atmosphere of the small theater.
Conclusion: An evening to feel, breathe, and wonder
The audience can expect a focused theatrical experience of about 90 minutes without an intermission: visually surprising, musically multi-layered, and carried by an acting artistry that transforms literature into vivid presence. Those who want to rediscover the little prince and experience theater as a place of wonder will find a special evening in this performance.
