Man of La Mancha: Tony-Winning Classic from Musical Theatre West

Full Price:
$53.00 - $63.00
Our Price:
$26.50 - $31.50

Winner of five Tony Awards including Best Musical and Best Composer and Lyricist, the classic musical Man of La Mancha retells the timeless story of Miguel Cervantes' Don Quixote, as a play-within-a-play. The author Cervantes re-enacts his story of the mad knight, a dying old man who lives in a world of his imagination as he awaits his hearing in the Spanish Inquisition. The show features the songs "Dulcinea," "I'm Only Thinking of Him," "I Really Like Him" and the show-tune standard, "The Impossible Dream." Davis Gaines, best known for starring in The Phantom of the Opera for more than 2000 performances in Los Angeles, San Francisco and on Broadway, plays Quixote. Learn More

I've heard the Capitol Steps on the radio and seen them on television, in person is better! Their performance was hilarious, current and fast-paced.

Always a great time! The cast has it down "pat" and skew both sides of the debate. The venue of Carpenter Center is ALWAYS terrific!
