The concert version of the stage adaptation of The Little Prince offers audiences a special experience, hearing the songs from Studio Dva’s project accompanied by a symphony orchestra. Suffused with grand symphonic sounds, Jan Cina will be transformed for the evening into the Little Prince, and together with Vendula Příhodová he will perform original songs by the composer, songwriter, and conductor Kryštof Marek. He will combine this with recitations from Exupéry’s work and beyond. 

Jan Cina is a versatile actor and singer, who jumpstarted his popularity in the Czech edition of the television contest Your Face Sounds Familiar, in which he was the overall winner. In 2021 he won the Czech dance contest show StarDance. Vendula Příhodová is also familiar to television viewers of the show Máme rádi Česko.
