Man of La Mancha
Written by Dale Wasserman
Music by Mitch Leigh and Lyrics by Joe Darion
Directed by Peter Rothstein
“Man of La Mancha is a triumph of creative imagination” - New York Post
“Rothstein bring the themes of human dignity and desperate imagination into sharp relief” - City Pages
Considered by many to be one of the best musicals of all time, MAN OF LA MANCHA is brilliantly reimagined with a contemporary urgency by celebrated director Peter Rothstein, who immerses us in Miguel de Cervantes’s retelling of Don Quixote and his quest. This epic and poignant journey celebrates the perseverance of one man who refuses to relinquish his ideals and who is determined to see life not as it is, but as it ought to be.
The winner of five Tony Awards®, including Best Musical, and featuring a soaring score, including “Man of La Mancha (I, Don Quixote)” and one of theatre’s most beloved songs, “The Impossible Dream,” this classic musical celebrates the power of theatre, the bravery of holding strong to our dreams, and the resilience of imagination.
