Quixote becomes distracted by a barber who passes by the inn, wearing his shaving basin on his head to ward off the sun's heat ("The Barber's Song").

Aldonza suddenly forces her way into the room. Synopsis Man of La Mancha, based on Cervantes’ epic 17th-century novel, Don Quixote, is a remarkable, poignant, moving musical that was one of the first shows to musicalize a piece of historical literature. The work is not and does not pretend to be a faithful rendition of … Cervantes chooses "the Duke" to play Dr. Sanson Carrasco, Antonia's fiancé, a man just as cynical and self-centered as the prisoner who is playing him. He is now sane: he gives his name as Alonso Quijano and thinks his knightly career was just a dream. Quixote, unaware of this, contemplates his recent victory and new knighthood ("The Impossible Dream" – first reprise). Carrasco and the priest set out to bring Don Quixote back home ("I'm Only Thinking of Him [Reprise]"). Years after this television broadcast and after the original teleplay had been unsuccessfully optioned as a non-musical Broadway play, director The musical was performed on a single set that suggested a dungeon. There he is dragged before a kangaroo court of his fellow prisoners, who plan to confiscate his few possessions—including the uncompleted manuscript of a novel, Don Quixote. This prompts Cervantes to passionately defend his idealism. Suddenly he spots a windmill, mistakes it for a four-armed giant, attacks it, and receives a beating from the encounter. The governor agrees. Set in the context of the Spanish Inquisition, Man of La Mancha is presented as a play-within-a-play. Sancho tries to cheer him up ("A Little Gossip"), and Alonso opens his eyes.
