In this video, meet the newest cast members in Don Quichotte -- Millie the donkey and Desperado the horse -- as they rehearse for their big main stage roles along with Don Quixote and Sancho Panza. Stage Director Linda Brovsky led the trek to the stables at Branch's Quarter Horses in Bothell, and here she narrates the events that transpired during this unique rehearsal.
you should really do a webcast of this opera with all the interest you've generated in it. seattleOpera seems to have great PR. johnRylea should be great in this in this relatively obscure piece (did see it on the web with jvDamm/brussels/pelly) should be quite endearing with a real donkey and horse. and richardBerstein - was he one of the gravediggers in the HamletHD broadcast? - believe i've seen him in other things as well - excellent performer. To all involved a prePerformace BRAVO!
