Man of La Mancha June 29, 2011

This musical masterpiece, which brought us the enormously popular hit 'The Impossible Dream,' is a musical within a play in which Miguel de Cervantes has been imprisoned by the Spanish Inquisition. Seeking to save his uncompleted novel from confiscation, he dramatically pleads his case by reenacting the story of Don Quixote of La Mancha: the passionate and poignant tale of a noble knight who lives in a world of madness and cannot see that chivalry has died. To fulfill his mission, he must convince his loving niece, her doctor fiance, the local priest, and the lovely Dulcinea, that his holy quest is a mission of salvation to find compassion - not for himself, but for everyone.
