Based on the story of Oscar Wilde’s The Happy Prince, a new online adaptation of the musical by Bel Canto Singers will be launched this summer. The story between the Happy Prince and the Swallow is extracted and retold in six separate video episodes, each resplendent with interactive video projections, illustrations and visual effects, bringing us into the imaginative musical realm of the Happy Prince and the Swallow to witness their generous acts of unconditional love.
