Description

Here is a true and faithful interpretation of one of the bulwarks of world literature. It is a grandly conceived, beautifully executed visual epic, rooted in Cervantes' own words. The episodic format of the production follows the structure of the book as the adventures gradually reveal Don Quijote's character and madness. Don Quijote wanted, in his youth, to be an actor; his words in this production never stray far from Cervantes' text, as Quijote is left to act out his fantasies-the same ones, of course, that motivated so many of Cervantes' contemporaries to head for the New World as conquistadors in search of honor and glory. With Fernando Rey as Don Quijote and Alfredo Landa as Sancho Panza.
