Story

Man of La Mancha is the musical adaptation of Cervantes’ masterpiece, Don Quixote. The show that introduced “The Impossible Dream” to the world won five Tony Awards and has become one of the most enduring works of musical theater.

Miguel de Cervantes, is thrown into prison by the Spanish Inquisition, along with his comic servant Sancho Panza.  When prisoners begin to steal his possession, he defends himself by telling them the story of an old man who believed he could become the knight-errant Don Quixote.   Quixote sets out on a quest to fight for right and to find his lady. 

Instead the “mad” knight fights windmills and finds Aldonza, who is definitely no lady. But against all odds, this noble knight dreams “the impossible dream” and through the power of his vision, gives hope to the prisoners and turns Aldonza into the Lady Dulcinea.  This show is filled with inspiring music and powerful characters.

Tickets will be available at Books-N-Things.
