Basically, the story begins with poet/playwright Don Miguel Cervantes who gets in trouble with the spanish inquisition and is taken to prison. His fellow prisoners traditionally conduct a mock trial to new prisoners. When Cervantes is found guilty, the 'jury's' sentence is that he be fined all of his possessions including a manuscript that is very valuable to him. So cervantes offers a defense. In his defense he acts out the manuscript, the story of the mad night, Don Quixote.

Who are the Men of la mancha?

A 'Man of La Mancha' is what cervantes knows his invetion Don Quixote as. At the end of the musical Man of La Mancha the governer says to him: 'I think Don Miguel (de cervantes) is brother to Don Quixote.and he replies:'God bless us, we are both men of la mancha.' (this is a very beautiful scene. After this Cervantes and Sancho go to appear before the inquisition)This means to be a man of la mancha is to see the world through the eyes of Don Quixote, seeing life as it should be not as it is. And sometimes, mad.
