Today in 2002, the fourth Broadway revival of Man of La Mancha opened at the Martin Beck Theatre (now the Al Hirschfeld Theatre), where it ran for 304 performances. Man of La Mancha is a musical with a book by Dale Wasserman, lyrics by Joe Darion and music by Mitch Leigh.

Rocky Mountain Deaf Theatre's ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOOS NEST to Open 9/27

Rocky Mountain Deaf Theatre's (RMDT) Production of 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest 'presents the stage play with an added layer of depth. Dale Wasserman's play, adapted from Ken Kesey's novel, paints a vision where the lost souls of patients of a mental institution manage to feel human when they are befriended by a rebellious new patient named McMurphy. In RMDT's production, the patients represent Deaf culture, and the staff members represent the hearing majority to highlight a real-life culture clash experienced by deaf people around the globe. This new take gives the audience a glimpse of the isolation and communication difficulties experienced by many deaf patients in real-life medical situations.
