Show: Dona Quixote
Die Roll: 20
Venue: Theatre Garage
Company: Anda Flamenco
This show starts with a send up of the song "The Impossible Dream" sung by a group of musicians that act like they are coming in from the cold of a Minnesota winter intermingled with oddly amusing gratuitous plugs for the show's sponsors (which included Toro, Chippewa Water, Caribou Coffee, and a local Hastings Winery, the name of which eludes me at the moment).
The storyline launches into short scenes that trace the storyline of the more traditional "Man of La Mancha," but instead of conversation there is only a brief bit of narration and then Flamenco dancing.
The dancing is beautiful. The people involved were all great dancers, but more importantly they were energized and fun.
I would recommend this show to anyone. It's fun and a good way to spend the hour.
