Feb 2 – Feb 19, 2012

Written by Darion, Leigh and Wasserman

Directed by Tea Alagic

This musical version of Cervantes’ Don Quixote tells the amazing tale of an errant knight (Randolph Curtis Rand) who believed that the ills of the world could be corrected, and set out to do so with his trusty sidekick, Sancho Panza (David Henderson), and his beloved Dulcinea (Yolanda Rabun).  Windmills will be tilted at!

“Too much sanity may be madness! But maddest of all… to see life as it is and not as it should be.”
