Royal Ballet: Don Quixote

Running time: 200 mins

Drama

Don Quixote, based on Miguel de Cervantes� epic novel of the same name, regales the adventures of the eccentric nobleman Don Quixote and his faithful squire Sancho Panza, as they help to bring a vivacious young couple, Kitri and Basilio, together. This energetic 19th-century ballet is enlivened by Ludwig Minkus� spirited score and is a wonderful showcase for the virtuosity of The Royal Ballet's Principal dancers. Created for The Royal Ballet a decade ago, Carlos Acosta�s exuberant production featuring Tim Hatley�s characterful designs brings the heat and romance of Cervantes' classic novel to life.
