The Drama Department at East Arkansas Community College will present The Quest for Don Quixote.  The curtain will rise for two separate showings on Saturday, April 9th at 7:00pm and Sunday, April 10th at 2:00pm in the EACC Fine Arts Center. 

The Quest of Don Quixote features the story of a struggling playwright faced with the daunting task of adapting the massive literary classic of Don Quixote overnight.  With the help of his wisecracking agent and the people found in a Starbucks where the writer has set up shop, the playwright churns out a zany script and delightfully theatrical, hilarious retelling of Cervantes’s classic tale. 

Produced by special arrangement with Eight Square Entertainment and written by award-winning writer, Mark Brown, the production will feature Daniel Davenport, David Nichol, Bianca Mora-Delgado, Haley Little, Haley Parson, Raymus Palmer, Lawson May, Priya Patel, Roth In, and Sam Harris of Forrest City, Mary Garcia and Julia Merrill of Wynne, and Kristen Barnes, Mark Robinson, and Myron Jones of Marianna.

The public is cordially invited, admission will be $5 and will be available at the door; EACC students are admitted free with a valid student ID. The show is not recommended for children.  The EACC Fine Arts Center is located at 1700 Newcastle Road in Forrest City.
