Ron Campbell to Star in DON QUIXOTE at Marin Shakespeare, 7/31-8/30
In his first appearance with Marin Shakespeare Company, award-winning actor Ron Campbell stars as Miguel de Cervantes' iconic dreamer. Campbell, who toured as "The King of the Clowns" in Cirque du Soleil's "Kooza," is also known for his solo work in "R. Buckminster Fuller" and "The Thousandth Night."
Directed by Lesley Schisgall Currier and co-starring John R. Lewis as Sancho Panza, with a cast of five actors playing a variety of roles, this re-imagined, madcap version of "Don Quixote" will be delightfully funny, touching and inspiring for all ages.
Also featuring Cassidy Brown, Rick Eldridge, Lee Fitzpatrick, Monica Ho and Jed Parsario.
