La Mancha by Marcel Mascaró


Teatro Chelsea's bold, bilingual Don Quixote adaptation


Don Quixote loses himself inside his books, but desperately yearns for the adventure he reads in his stories of knighthood. To the dismay of his family, he sets off to make his imagination a reality with the help of his next-door neighbor, Sancho. Wrapped in tin foil with his loyal “squire” Sancho at his side, they go on a journey unlike any Don Quixote could have imagined. As the story unravels, families find themselves on the precipice of discovering something they thought they had lost long ago.


7:30pm

Midsummer (ish): a 6-actor, 60 minute Dream


For One Night Only: a 60-minute romp where 6 Apollinaire favorites take on 17 roles as lovers, fighters, and magical sprites, joined by special guests—both human and canine.


The event features:

A Beer Garden hosted by Medford Brewing Company, food and craft vendors, workshops—including How to Die on Stage with Parker Jennings and a Hip Hop Dance Workshop with Alan Kuang & Bulletproof Funk—musical performances by Pearl Scott, TreeHouse Collective, Mariachi & more; a performance by Bulletproof Funk; a costume conversion fashion show; art; and youth performances and activities.
