Man of La Mancha

Directed by Stewart Lyle
Musical Direction by Armando Fox
Choreography by Paula Wujek
Opens February 26! The mission of Don Quixote, questing idealist and alter ego of Spanish writer Miguel de Cervantes, is to help others see the world “not as it is, but as it ought to be.” His signature song The Impossible Dream is an anthem for anyone on a quest of their own, and makes the story as powerful today as in Cervantes’ time.
Featuring: Perry Aliado • Laura Domingo • Ron Dritz • James Gee • John Hale • Don Hardwick • Gregory Marks • Lisa Price • LaMont Ridgell • Sebastian Romeo • Bob Stratton • Donna Turner
