I highly recommend this play, whihc has been briefly extended  Very funny and clever update of an old French farce, re-doneand entirely rewritten by David Ives, who is one of the cleverest playwrights out there today. The whole thing is in rhyming couplets, which you might imagine would be annoying but is actually quire remarkable.  Best, David

A story of hope rises from the darkness of a prison cell where Cervantes presents his tale of knight errant Don Quixote, complete with loyal friends, troubled maidens, and giant monsters. Quixote’s quest—filled with humor and poignancy in equal measure—dares everyone to dream “The Impossible Dream.”

Acclaimed Australian actor Anthony Warlow stars as Don Quixote under the direction of STC Associate Artistic Director Alan Paul. He is joined by Amber Iman who will play Aldonza and Nehal Joshi rounds out the starring trio as Sancho.
