Nicholas Lyndhurst and Cassidy Janson join Kelsey Grammer and Danielle de Niese in a brand new production of the multi-Tony award winning Broadway musical, Man of La Mancha to London’s Coliseum, the first West End production of this much loved musical in over 50 years.
Nicholas Lyndhurst, who will play the Innkeeper and the Captain and Cassidy Janson who will share the role of Aldonza and Dulcinea with Danielle de Niese,
Featuring the iconic song ‘Dream the Impossible Dream’, Man of La Mancha is Inspired by Miguel de Cervantes’s masterpiece Don Quixote.
In a 16th century dungeon Cervantes and his man servant await trial from the Spanish Inquisition. In his possession he has a trunk carrying an unfinished novel, Don Quixote. As prisoners attempt to steal his possessions, Cervantes embarks on acting out his novel as his defence, transforming himself into Alonso Quijano.
Quijano, deluded, believes he is a knight errant, renames himself Don Quixote de la Mancha, and sets off on a fantastical quest with his man servant Sancho Panza.
Chivalry abounds in this classic tale of knighthood, love, loyalty and adventure.
Man of La Mancha will play a limited season, with performances from 26 April to 8 June 2019.
