Yay!  We're gonna go see the legendary musical, "Man of La Mancha," on April 27th.  Yes, yes, it's in Park Slope, Brooklyn, but we will have an optional meeting place in Manhattan to travel there together.  I've done inter-borough travel many times with groups, and it's worked out very well.

Anyway, I think this show will be SPECTACULAR!  Here's why:
1.  It's put on at the Gallery Players , which the Daily News recently described as a "thriving space in Park Slope, Brooklyn, [that] has shown a knack for clever revivals of Broadway shows that pack in audiences."  Gallery Players has history -- it recently celebrated its 40th anniversary.

2.  "Man of La Mancha" has the legendary song "The Impossible Dream" in it!  Need I say more?

3.  OK, I will say more.  Here's some cool facts:
The show made its Broadway debut in 1965, where it played for 2,329 performances
It won five Tony Awards, and has been revived numerous times
It's based on the 17th century masterpiece, I, Don Quixote
The musical tells the tale of author Miguel de Cervantes who, imprisoned and awaiting trial before the Spanish Inquisition, joins with his fellow prisoners to perform a play about Don Quixote de la Mancha, the mad knight who quests for justice and tilts at windmills.
