REVIEWS
“There is muscle in ‘La Mancha,’ and he flexes it with a balanced, sturdy-voiced ensemble boasting ‘Les Miserables’ in their bios instead of the usual Shakespearean credits. The consistent solid singing and respectful seriousness — along with the fascinating way Warlow’s magnetic centerpiece performance seems to get under the steely Iman’s skin — gives this ‘La Mancha’ authority to dream big.”
“This musical is built to impress, and director Alan Paul has crafted a smart and entertaining show that DC audiences couldn’t get anywhere else.”
“Paul’s magic has returned…This is a show that has Broadway written all over it.”
