Don Quixote is on a quest: to find the idealised beloved of his age-addled dreams. The mettlesome lovers Kitri and Basilio are also on a quest: to end up together, despite Kitri’s father and his plans for her to marry the richest fop in town. Their paths meet; and after a storm, a vision, much high-jinks and a little emotional blackmail, ballet’s funniest happy ending is achieved. Reinvented by Rudolf Nureyev for The Australian Ballet, and with plenty of classical pyrotechnics, Don Quixote is a benchmark for dancers. This ballet is a tonic, and a must for first-timers and children.
