Synopsis

Prologue Don Quixote, having read his fill of romances of knights and chivalry, decides to set off on his travels in order to do great deeds, which will bring glory to his name. As his sword-bearer, he chooses the loyal Sancho Panza, a man of sober outlook who is not prone to dreams.

ACT I In Barcelona there is festivity in the air. Kitri, daughter of the innkeeper, is flirting with the barber Basilio who is in love with her. Finding them together, Kitri’s father, Lorenzo, chases Basilio away: the barber is not a fit match for his daughter. Lorenzo is planning on Kitri to marry the rich nobleman Gamach, but Kitri refuses to submit to her father’s will.

At the height of the merry-making, Don Quixote appears in the square, accompanied by Sancho Panza. When he sees Kitri, Don Quixote thinks she is the beautiful Dulcinea of his dreams and the one he has chosen as the lady of his heart. But Kitri disappears; she has run off with her lover, Basilio. Lorenzo, Gamache, and Don Quixote set out to find her.

Intermission

ACT II, Scene 1 Kitri and Basilio are hiding in a tavern where they are found by the trio. Lorenzo wishes to make an immediate announcement of the betrothal of Kitri and Gamache. But, before he can, Basilio pretends to take his life while Kitri in turn pretends to sob over the body of her sweetheart. Don Quixote, overcome by noble indignation, accuses Lorenzo of hardheartedness, threatens him with is sword, and forces him to agree to his daughter’s marriage with the barber. Hearing this, Basilio jumps to his feet.

Scene 2 Don Quixote and Sancho Panza arrive in a gypsy encampment by the windmills. The owner of a puppet theater invites Don Quixote to watch a show. Don Quixote follows the performance with rapt attention and, forgetting it is a play, rushes on to the stage, sword in hand, to defend those who need his protection. Catching sight of the windmills, he mistakes them for evil magicians that must be defeated. Attacking them, he grabs the sail blade and is lifted high into the air before plummeting to the ground.

Scene 3 Don Quixote and Sancho Panza find themselves in a forest that the wandering knight thinks is filled with monsters and giants. Sancho Panza settles him down to sleep and runs off for help. In his dreams Don Quixote sees the lady of his heart, Dulcinea, sur - rounded by Dryads and fairies. Sancho Panza returns with the Duke and Duchess who had been hunting nearby. They listen to Sancho Panza’s appeal to help Don Quixote and decide to invite them to visit their castle.

Intermission

Act III Inside the castle all is ready for the guests. Having heard from Sancho Panza about Kitri and Basilio, the Duke and Duchess have agreed for their wedding to be held in the castle. Don Quixote and Sancho Panza occupy the seats of honor while a solemn procession files past. When the knight catches sight of Kitri, he again thinks she is LINCOLN CENTER FESTIVAL 2014 DON QUIXOTE

Dulcinea. But the Duke and Sancho Panza persuade him that she is not the woman of his dreams, but the very same innkeeper’s daughter whom he helped to unite with her sweetheart.

Everyone thanks the valiant knight and his faithful sword-bearer.
