SEEKING:

Miguel de Cervantes/Alonso Quijana/Don Quixote (30s-60s, he/him) Baritone/Alto.
Cervantes is an actor, playwright, and tax collector. Quijana is an aging gentleman who believes himself to be Don Quixote. Quixote is a would-be knight errant, a romantic, and a madman.

Sancho Panza (30s-50s, he/him) Tenor.
Quixote’s loyal squire and sidekick. Funny, pragmatic.

Aldonza/Dulcinea (30s-50s, she/her) Soprano with belt.
A servant and part-time prostitute. Jaded, defiant, a survivor. Her rough exterior masks a gentle heart. Quixote imagines her to be his lady, Dulcinea.

• Barber: A traveling barber.
• Padre: A kindly cleric. Thoughtful, sympathetic to Don Quixote, but conflicted.
• Antonia: Sweet but self-centered. Niece to Alonso Quijana and engaged to Dr. Carrasco.
• Housekeeper: Strong, religious, holds tightly to her convictions. Works as a housekeeper for Alonso Quijana.
• Maria: No-nonsense, exasperated, and pessimistic. Married to the Innkeeper.
