‘Don Quixote’
One of literature’s most adventurous tales is at the center of Milwaukee Ballet’s season premiere Don Quixote, based on Cervantes’ picaresque literary epic about the misadventures of a delusional, would-be knight. Artistic director Michael Pink’s production (last performed in 2006) focuses on the dynamic between Quixote and his much-put-upon squire Sancho Panza. Ludwig Minkus’ score is considered one of the finest examples of Russian ballet, just behind Swan Lake and The Nutcracker.
