Alonso Quexana (or was it Quijano?) has a big problem. He reads too many books! Like all who indulge in this dangerous practice he has lost his mind, changed his name and now fancies himself a Knight Errant, to the great consternation of his family, tenants, neighbours, peasants, lovers, innkeepers, traders, and the odd travelling noble.
Experience with us the great and varied tales of the last of the great Knights, (along with his loyal squire Sancho,) sometimes loathed, sometimes tolerated, sometimes scorned, but never ignored, these are the adventures of Don Quixote de La Mancha!
Pre-Show Stage Combat Workshop
As an optional extra treat, Quill & Inkling are offering a pre-show stage combat workshop where you can learn the tricks of the trade and experience how our performers choreograph their action scenes, working together to make it look slick and effective! Afterwards, see if you can spot the techniques in the show.
The workshop runs from 17:00 - 18:00 on the day of the show. Wear comfortable clothes and sturdy shoes.
