    I was laughing at myself. I clicked on your link and saw the headline: "Exclusive: Louise Pitre Leads All-Female La Mancha Set in Women's Prison," and I read it at first to literally mean that you were going to be performing Man of La Mancha in a women's prison.

    Congrats and good luck!

    Man of La Mancha is based on Don Quixote, right? How does that translate to a prison setting?

    The musical is set in a prison where Cervantes defends himself to the other prisoners by telling the story of Don Quixote with all the prisoners playing parts. I think it's going to be fun .... Don Quixote meets Orange is the New Black. :)

    When I think of women's prison vehicles I think of classics like Chained Heat (HC is not the least bit surprised at this news) not Man of La Mancha, but bonne chance and break a leg!

    I'm playing Pedro, one of the muleteers who rape Aldonza. Not quite the nun I used to play ....

    One of the few musicals I've seen performed live.
    At Glassboro State (now Rowan) when I was a child.
