A Little Princess is based on the novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett, which was honored by School Library Journal as one of the “Top 100 Chapter Books” of all time. This re-imagined version of the classic tale expands beyond the confines of Victorian England to Africa, giving the writers ample opportunity to include lively African music and dance, exotic locales like Mali and Timbuktu, and creating an unforgettable journey around the world.
Based on the classic Victorian-era novel, it is the story of a young girl’s resilience, when she is placed in a Boarding School by her father and the power of her imagination to change the world. This was shown in On Stage Greenbelt last December 3.
Our team co-produced the play and got some art enthusiasts to support it. Expect our team to bring you other literary tales in the future as a way to support what we do for the children in our communities.
