"Fun, solid and silly, “Quixote Nuevo” does what it does very well, thanks in part to a game ensemble cast who play everything from barflys to dancing calacas to sheep."
The Daily UW:
"The performance is both heart-wrenching and heart-warming, as our playwright expertly toes the line between comedy and tragedy, capturing the original essence of Cervantes."
"It was brilliant yet accessible, visually stunning, and truly fun despite being emotionally complex."
LA Times:
"[Octavio Solis] is next in that lineage from Eugene O’Neill to August Wilson.”
"Big, bawdy, political, serious and very fun"
