Theater: ‘Man of La Mancha’
By
C.B. Wismer

Let’s presume, for a moment, that Francis Daley brought “Man of La Mancha” to TheatreWorks New Milford because he had the innate sense that we all needed reassurance that at this point in time, it is mandatory “to dream the impossible dream.” If you add to that presumption that Daley actually “pitched” the idea of Dale Wasserman, Joe Darion and Mitch Leigh’s timeless musical as the final offering of the 2018 season over a year ago, then the audience owes him a special round of applause.

They sing.  They dance.  They fly through the air in acrobatic turns.  The “newsies,” the rough, tough street kids who sold newspapers in turn of 20th Century New York have come to the Warner Theatre with energy to burn.

Leon Graham
