Passenger in Transit is a show inspired by the character of Don Quixote created by Cervantes. It is a contemporary show in which new technology plays an important role and audiovisual effects give shape to the settings. What we see is not an adapted version of the original which is almost impossible due to its extension, but a reflection on the best known character in Spanish literature.
The story is set in Japan in this century, where two friends, Bidanshi (Rafael Amango), and Akira (Fran Fernandez) live their obsession with DQIII video game. This obsession goes even further when Bidanshi is accidentally introduced in the video game world, (here's set the parallel between cavalry books and video games), where Quixote's adventures will take place, recreating some of the original scenes from the book. Space and time changes will drive the audience into a world of fantasy, where the 21st century merges with the 15th century. A flamenco musical where Spanish most popular dance merges with brand new dance expressions - break dance, folklore, contemporary dance and escuela bolera with new technologies.
For two centuries Don Quixote invariably belongs to the bestsellers of ballet stage. Many famous choreographs, among them Petipa and Gorsky, were interested not only in the main characters in the novel of Cervantes, but also in the background which represents a pretext for Spanish dancers. Don Quixote on Minsk stage is a parade of very talented dancers both of solo and of episodic parts. All together they offer the spectators to plunge into adventures, tricks, chases, a fascinating and attractive game of Spain.
Children under 1.2m (Except children for performances) are NOT allowed to enter NCPA.
