A timeless classic ballet

A performance in Two Acts with one intermission.

Total runtime - 1 hour 45 min.

BRAVADO! HEROISM! ROMANCE! ILLUSION! These qualities permeate the fanciful tale of Don Quixote – a brave Spanish Conquistador obsessed with medieval chivalry who imagines himself to be a knight errant.

Along with his faithful servant, Sancho Panza, Don Quixote searches for his mythical love, Lady Dulcinea. Marius Petipa choreographed this unusual ballet at the height of his career, and it premiered at the Bolshoi Theatre in 1869. IBT honors the ballet in its traditional style. Vibrant costumes and fiery Spanish flavor transform this implausible story into a richly entertaining and unforgettable experience.
