Theatre Branch Presents:
Man of LaMancha
September 7 - October 7

“Man of La Mancha” has powerful music played by an 8 piece orchestra that contrasts captivity vs freedom; love vs violence; hope vs death. Director Marty Babayco with stars Scott White and Laura Dekkers will astonish you with their daring interpretation of the dreamer and his “Dulcinea “ with the classic anthem that boldly reaches for “the unreachable star.”  Man of LaMancha opens September 7 and plays through October 7. Performances are Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m. For more info or to purchase tickets visit Ojaiact.org or call 805-640-8797. ​
