The Ballet Flamenco de José Huertas presents Don Quijote, a ballet premiered in Paris in 1846 with music by Australian Ludwig Minkus. This is a free version by Marius Petipa who has directed the libretto and choreography of Chapter XIX of the second part of Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes, which narrates in three acts the romance between the barber Basilio and young Quiteria (called Kitri in the ballet).
The José Huertas company takes us to a vibrant and energetic vision of the work of Miguel de Cervantes, in a mixture of Spanish dance and flamenco with a very characteristic language inherited from his teacher, Antonio Gades, who transports us through the dreamlike world of Knight.
