Wisconsin Book Festival Presents: ¡QUIJÓTERES! A bilingual shadow puppet showstopper

¡Quijóteres! is a bilingual, shadow puppet adaptation of Miguel de Cervantes’ lovable lunatic, Don Quijote de La Mancha. As a work interpreted by shadow puppets, it takes full advantage of imaginative settings and scenarios to emphasize the novel’s intensely comical depiction of the ridiculous, with all the clashes and crashes, valor and vomit, that have distinguished the Quijote as a funny book for more than four centuries.

Whether viewers speak Spanish or English, are familiar with Don Quixote or are meeting him for the first time, all ages will delight in this 45-minute, highly-acclaimed shadow puppet production by Dragoncillo Puppet Troupe .

This FREE production is made possible in partnership with Institute for Research in the Humanities (IRH) at UW-Madison in tandem with the UW Center for the Humanities.
