🎭 Circus Quixotic, the winter circus production at actorsgymnasium, flips the story of Don Quixote into a modern, family-friendly retelling. | ✍️ Kimzyn Campbell

, the winter circus production at The Actors Gymnasium, flips the story of Don Quixote into a modern retelling. Through metaphor and audience asides from the actors, director and adapter duo David and Kerry Catlin condense Miguel de Cervantes’s 1,072-page tome of misadventures into a family-friendly chunk of mayhem featuring the title character and his sidekick Sancho Panza. We know the plot perhaps too well.

In The Actors Gymnasium’s style, the story is intertwined with circus. Solos and duos are performed by the cast while supporting roles and group circus acts are performed by the teen ensemble, a group with well-rounded circus skills ranging from ground acts to aerial acts . Michel Rodriguez Cintra plays the charming yet fickle Don Quixote with Amanda Raquel Martinez as his patient, steady companion Sancho.

The supporting cast provides comic relief to counterbalance Quixote’s delusions, making for an enjoyable plot tempo.
