1 peopleThe Naked King of La Mancha Invisible to Fools overlays The Emperor's New Clothes with Don Quixote, bringing reality and fantasy together through the encounter between a wounded king and Sancho Panza. Borrowing the lightness of fable, the play asks about war, power, and emotional recovery.
When the naked king meets Sancho Panza, laughter begins to illuminate a wounded heart.
