Don Quixote is based on Miguel de Cervantes’ epic novel of the same name and regales the adventures of the eccentric nobleman Don Quixote and his faithful squire Sancho Panza as the pair help to bring a vivacious young couple, Kitri and Basilio together. The energetic 19th century ballet is enlivened by Ludwig Minkus’ spirited score and is a wonderful showcase for the virtuosity of the Royal Ballet’s principal dancers. Created for the Royal Ballet a decade ago, Carlos Acosta’s exuberant production featuring Tim Hatley’s characterful designs brings the heat and romance of Cervantes’ classic novel to life.
