bart Posted November 6, 2006 Author Share Posted November 6, 2006 Here's a review of the Topeka performance of "Don Quijote," which apparently won a standing ovation. (Thanks, dirac, for the Link.) Has anyone seen MCB on this mid-west tour? The new Don Q has already been done in Miami and Fort Lauderdale, and comes to the Kravis in West Palm Beach for six performances starting Nov. 17. http://capitaljournal.cjonline.com/stories...nt_review.shtml Link to comment
