World Premiere Adaptation is a Delight

Excerpt from Ashland Daily Tidings, Roberta Kent
June 24, 2009


Whatever you were expecting from the Oregon Shakespeare Festival's production of the world premiere of Octavio Solis' adaptation of Cervantes'"Don Quixote," I guarantee you will be surprised. Delightfully surprised.

Bouncing all over the Elizabethan Stage is the bedraggled knight, his roly-poly squire, his reluctant steed and most of the absurd encounters and exasperated characters that populate the first volume of Cervantes' novel, accompanied by the most outrageous and ingenious puppets and props that you will ever see. This "Don Quixote" is a complete joy, absolutely enthralling from the first guitar chords of its beginning to Quixote's triumphal exit.

Read the complete review.
