Don Quixote

FITS Performances


A new performance for Urban Spaces based on Don Quixote de la Mancha by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra. The dramaturgy paints the portrait of a man against a world that leaves no room for imagination, a world that annihilates the ideals inherent in human beings. With Teatro dei Venti's characteristic instruments, stilts, pyrotechnics, smoke bombs, acrobatics, highly scenographic costumes and dramaturgical re-adaptation, the audience will be led on parade through the protagonist's mad utopia.
