The Happy Prince (1996) Channel 4 Puppet Opera

This is the ‘lost’ adaptation of The Happy Prince by Oscar Wilde, made in 1996 by Channel 4 Schools, using beautiful puppets and operatic music. It was not made commercially available to buy, and is unavailable to access through the TV archives. I apologise for the poor quality, as this is a copy of my VHS recording of the original broadcast, which is over 17 years old! I had to compress it too, as it was too big to process on YouTube in its original format. Hope you remember it and enjoy watching it again as much as I did!

Großartig was Du da wieder entdeckt hast – ein echtes “nachträgliches Weihnachtsgeschenk” das uns der Poster da gemacht hat – und das nicht nur für Jimmy-Fans. Bin gerührt!
