"Man of LaMancha"

book by Dale Wasserman

music by Mitch Leigh

lyrics by Joe Darion

Synopsis:

The musical adaptation of Cervantes' masterpiece, "Don Quixote," "Man of La Mancha" is a play within a play, telling part of the story of Cervantes' brush with the Inquisition as well as the story of Don Quixote de la Mancha, the idealistic persona adopted by an enlightened madman. Don Quixote's quest for justice, pure and chaste love, and all that is the best in us, is the same quest we all seek as we grow out of our childhood, but too often find is unattainable. There are those moments in our lives, however, and they may come at any time, when we dare to dream... the impossible dream.
