Why see Man Of La Mancha?

RIDING HIS NOBLE STEED, DON QUIXOTE IS COMING SOON!

A celebrated Broadway hit and winner of five Tony Awards, Man of La Mancha has left thousands breathless with a score including the touching ode to romance, "Dulcinea," the heroic "I, Don Quixote" and the immortal ballad "The Impossible Dream." This phenomenal production will flesh out in detail the other characters of this classic story who are larger than life, and well-loved by millions of people around the world.

WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

Miguel de Cervantes and his faithful servant are thrown into jail by the brutal Spanish Inquisition for foreclosing on a monastery that failed to pay their taxes. Having managed to bring all their belongings with them into gaol, the other prisoners give them a deal - there will be a "trial" of sorts, and if they lose, they must hand over their worldly possessions.

De Cervantes, with the help of his servant then dons the costume of an elderly gentlemen, who then goes on to regale his unruly audience with The legend of Don Quixote's exploits, as he embarks on a quest to lay siege on the windmills and to win the heart of his beautiful muse, Aldonza.

Inspired by one of the greatest novels of all time, Man of La Mancha channels the power of storytelling in a meta-musical format to recount the legend of would-be knight Don Quixote and his trusty sidekick Sancho as they embark on a journey full of laughter, love and unruly windmills.

Great except for the lead.

Just saw this production and loved it. Only issue I saw was with the lead- Don Quixote. H e was either too old or too tired to perform. Especially his voice ! He just doesn't sing well which is odd for a musical. My actual favorite performers were the muleteers especially the ones in leather pants and with whips. Great voices, true entertainers. Some in this production appear ready for much bigger roles. Loved the show- worth the price except for the lead actor. Bishop wX also awesome! Thankfully there were entry if bright spots to cover for the lead. ... Read more
