La Mancha

Adapted and translated by Marcel Mascaró
From Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes

Directed by Catia

PLEASE NOTE: THIS SHOW’S RUN HAS ENDED.

Bold, bilingual Don Quixote adaptation

Don Quixote loses himself inside his books, but desperately yearns for the adventure he reads in his stories of knighthood. To the dismay of his family, he sets off to make his imagination a reality with the help of his next-door neighbor, Sancho. Wrapped in tin foil with his loyal “squire” Sancho at his side, they go on a journey unlike any Don Quixote could have imagined. As the story unravels, families find themselves on the precipice of discovering something they thought they had lost long ago.
