Hello! Just wanted to thank you again for making Man of la Mancha the wwmmusical this time! It's cool to find other people that love your favorite musicals too :) Have a nice week <3

Ahhh, yay! It’s one of my mom’s favorite musicals, so I figured I had to use it for wwmmusicals. I can’t wait to watch it--I never have! I saw you had posted something, but I’m going to wait until I’ve seen the show to read it!

Man of La Mancha music by Mitch Leigh, lyrics by Joe Darion

This is the sixth installment of the Watch With Me: Musicals series where we watch/listen to a musical, talk about what we like, don’t like, characters, audition songs, analysis, best songs, worst songs, everything! Think of it as a book club for musicals! Click here to find out more and get involved, everybody is welcome!

“While awaiting a hearing with the Inquisition, Cervantes presents a play as his defense in a mock trial for the prisoners. In it, he plays Alhonso Quiana, a man who has set his own reality aside and become Don Quixote De La Mancha. Assisted by his "squirem" Sancho Panza, Quixote attempts to avoid his mortal enemy, the Enchanter, and woo the serving wench and prostitute, Aldonza, who he takes to be the lady Dulcinea.” (source)

Man of La Mancha opened in 1965 and had 2328 performances. It has been revived on Broadway four times, in 1972 (140 performances), 1977 (124 performances), 1992 (108 performances), and 2002 (304 performances.) The original production won five Tony awards, including Best Musical, Best Composer and Lyricist, and Best Actor in a Musical (Richard Kile.)

Enjoy! Give it a listen/watch and share your thoughts under the tag #wwmmusicals before next Friday, and I will do the same! If you already know the musical, I still encourage you to post your thoughts on it. Some things to get your mind going: Do you like the musical or not? Why? Favorite songs? Favorite lines? Least favorite songs? Are there any roles for you? Potential audition songs? How much would you LOVE to see it on Broadway! Have you seen it before? Perhaps you want to link a recording from another actor you love performing in the show or covering a song? What do you think of the composer? Why do you think it’s important? And whatever else you may find interesting about it! Get your posts up, and we’ll get the conversation rolling!
