Circus Quixote Tickets

Experience Circus Quixote, a captivating reimagining of Miguel de Cervantes’ Don Quixote brought to life through stunning circus artistry. This world-premiere production from Lookingglass Theatre pairs acclaimed writers-directors Kerry and David Catlin with circus visionary Sylvia Hernandez-DiStasi, in association with Actors Gymnasium. Set in Chicago, this 2 hour 15 minute performance (including one intermission) invites audiences 8 and older into a magical fusion of theatre and circus.

World-premiered and performed at Looknglass Theatre’s Joan and Paul Theatre (Water Tower Water Works), the show marks Lookingglass’ reopening with a Chicago engagement running January 30 through March 30, 2025. The run includes special Latine Night programming and related dramaturgy panels, offering deeper insight into the production and its influences.

Meet the cast led by Michel Rodríguez Cintra as Don Quijada/Don Quixote, joined by Micah Figueroa, Julian Hester, Eddie Martinez, Laura Murillo Hart, Andrea San Miguel, and Ayana Strutz. While Circus Quixote is a theatre production rather than a music release—hence no discography—the show’s creative team brings an unforgettable blend of narrative theatre and aerial and acrobatic circus to the stage. As you plan your visit, secure your seats for a show that blends Cervantes’ timeless tale with contemporary circus in the heart of Chicago.
