Friday, March 06, 2026 @ 7:30pm

McCarter Theatre Center (Matthews Theatre)
91 University Place, Princeton, NJ 08540

Based on Miguel de Cervantes’ Don Quijote of La Mancha 

Written and Directed by Kerry and David Catlin 

Circus by Sylvia Hernandez-DiStasi 

Produced in Association with The Actors Gymnasium

Cervantes’ classic is reimagined in a dazzling new production from the creators of McCarter audience favorites, Lookingglass Alice and Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. 

Somewhere in La Mancha there lived a man who read so many books that his brains dried up…so he becomes a knight! As Don Quixote embarks on his impossible quest for justice, Lookingglass Theatre’s signature acrobatics, breathtaking visuals, and boundless imagination transport audiences into his wild, windmill-tilting world.
