When a man speaks the truth we call him wise. When he walks into
danger we call him brave. When he tilts at windmills we call him
mad, and when he does all these things we call him Don Quixote. For
this famous tragicomedy Theatre of Yugen trades in their austere Noh
form for a bumbling and boisterous romp with clowning and visual
delights. Ballads and dance are accompanied by the rich flamenco-
based compositions of Bay Area guitarist David McLean, and the
characters appear in and out of a fantastical life-size pop-up book.
There will be a special Sunday matinee at 3:00 on April 23 in honor
of UNESCO's "Day of the Book", and throughout the run of the show the
lobby will feature an exhibit of work by local bookmakers and
letterpress artisans. For information and reservations go to
