I have neve submitted a review for anything, but I have to let the Elli Caulkins Opera House how disappointed I was with the performance of Don Quixote. I should have know when the tickets were so cheap. I attended the Fri 10/23 show. The dancers were out of sinc, the primadonna was not on que with the music, costumes were cheezy...
It will be awhile before I trust a show at the Opera house. Denver needs better cultural performances if they want to staty alive. It's a real shame because it is a beautiful facility and so much fun to go to the ballet! The one great bright spot was that everyone was turned out in their best to see the ballet.

I really enjoyed the level of talent displayed at this particulair ballet, and find it so very true when the program states, "you do not need to go to NY or LA to find talented artists, they are right here in Denver."

Don Quixote seemed to have a lethargic start, but it crescendoed to a great finale.

The ballet was beautifully executed and enjoyable. The precision with which the dancers moved their bodies was incredible. The orchestra was fabulous, and made for a very memorable day. The solos were great, but the choreography for the group dances was impressive as they all had to move together at the same time.

As a season ticket holder with San Francisco Ballet, I was dubious about seeing something as difficult as Don Q produced by a "regional" company. The dancing was excellent. I will definitely try to plan my trips around the Colorado Ballet schedule.

This is the first Don Quixote I've ever seen, and was happy to find what a rousing, non-stop experience it was. The performers, costumes and sets were top-notch, the live orchestra is wonderful, and the overall effect is pure enjoyment.

We very much enjoyed the ballet and the side show with Don Quixote cavorting with others on the side of the stage. Also, loved Sancho! Great show, great costumes ... didn't want it to end.

My Wife and I attended the Ballet Don Quixote and enjoyed every moment of it! We have to travel 70 miles one way to so we do not get to see as many of the Ballets as we would like to, but over the past 2 years have never been disappointed by the Colorado Ballet! We will attend the Nutcraker this year for sure, and we are going to try to get to more! Bravo to all the Dancers that bring such pleasure to us!!!

Breathtaking. My daughter and I were truly holding our breath as the dancers glided across the stage and flew in the air. I know the rest of the audience was thoroughly engaged as near the end of the show there was a giggle of glee from a child that entire opera house heard and joined.

This is the second ballet I have been to and was truly amazed by the performance, as was my girlfriend who was going for the first time. The costume and set design were as vibrant as the dancing and musical score. It was a pleasure to take in the sights and sounds flowing within a very simple story punctuated by humor.
A few interesting notes- Don Quixote himself is a very minor character in the production. In fact, he does not even dance. After reading the play bill, I learned the production has existed since the late 1800s, originating in Russia.
This performance is really well suited for anyone- whether you're a first timer or not, younger or older audience, I believe you will enjoy Don Quixote.
