Additional info: CIRCUS QUIXOTE First Rehearsal: October 14, 2024 Opening: November 21, 2024 Closing; January 05, 2024 Somewhere in La Mancha a man’s brain dries up from reading one too many books of wandering knights. With his stalwart steed Rocinante and Sancho, his stout and steadfast squire, Don Quixote sets out to bring back the Code of Chivalry to save a world that didn’t know it needed saving. Our would-be knight’s quest is idealistic, bombastic, and filled full with folly and madness. Inspired by Cervantes’ inspiring novel, Circus Quixote defies gravity. And reason.
