Don Quixote has spent his whole life reading about the heroic exploits of famous Knights in books…

..now, with a little help from his reluctant squire Sancho Panza, and you the audience, he’s going to bring those stories to life, whatever the consequences!

Travelling together on bicycles, actors and audiences will experience the colourful and misguided escapades of Don Quixote – self styled Knight of La Mancha.

This exciting piece of interactive family theatre involves actors riding custom designed bikes that even a medieval knight would be proud of.

As part of the show you too will decorate your cycle, or even turn your bike into a horse!!

 
An inventive form of theatre, a different kind of bike ride and a great way of introducing youngsters to a classic tale.
