Don Quixote at Mayo Performing Arts Center

Filled with comedy, fancy footwork and authentic Spanish dancing, New Jersey Ballet brings to life a beloved landmark ballet. Based on Miguel de Cervantes' classic novel and the 1900 version staged for the Bolshoi by Alexander Gorsky, Don Quixote follows a dotty middle-aged man obsessed with tales of chivalry. Joined by his trusty servant Sancho Panza, the two set out to defend virtue and punish those who violate the code of honor. The duo's adventures take an unexpected turn when the would-be knight mistakes an innkeeper's daughter for his dream lover, Dulcinea. Experience this classical, full-length masterpiece when it dances its way to the Mayo Performing Arts Center.
