NOTE FROM THE DIRECTOR I fell in love with Man of La Mancha at the age of 10 when my parents dragged me to see my brother in his high school’s production. Entering the theatre, I had no interest in what seemed to me a creaky old musical, but as this story, which celebrates imagination, dignity and respect unfolded, I was transfixed and transcended. I ended up begging different members of my family to go with them and saw every single performance that weekend. It can be a challenge to revisit something that had such an impact on one’s life and spirit, and as we began to build a production for the Garden, I found myself stuck in a memory of what had been and feared my reverence for the piece would actually create the creaky old musical I did not want to see as a child. Through collaboration with our incredible creative team, exceptional cast and inspiration from the Quixote Center’s “Inalienable” initiative, we have come up with a modern reimagining of this classic work that we hope will inspire you through its message of hope and humanity. Inalienable is the name the Quixote Center selected for their work to counter efforts to cast the neighbor as “alien.” They say, “We envision a society in which no one is alienated from his/her basic rights or from one another.” The journey and collaboration with this remarkable cast and creative team have led us to discover and uncover why Cervantes’ novel and this classic American Musical have endured and both still speak directly to the hearts and minds of readers and audiences today. I will hold this experience and this marvelous group of humans in my heart forever. Thank you for joining us for the opening of our 14th Season and welcome HOME to the Garden. We invite you to consider your “Impossible Dream” and join us for a season of reflection and discovery.
Joseph C. Walsh, Director

DANIEL MILLS APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAM Garden Theatre is honored to house the William Daniel Mills Apprenticeship Program. Harold and Rosy Mills selected the Garden to launch this new apprenticeship program for young diverse artists ages 13 through 22. This generous gift and program was created to honor the memory of their beloved son Daniel Mills, who tragically passed away in 2020. The program, which launched this month, will potentially expand to other arts organizations in Central Florida. For the 2021-22 Season, the Garden accepted 30 apprentices in areas of performance, directing, design/tech, playwriting, stage management, and education. Apprentices take Garden Theatre Education masterclasses, camps, and classes at no cost, in addition to attending rehearsals, performances, and other events also at no cost. Apprentices will also be considered for paid opportunities working on Garden Theatre mainstage productions. “Theatre brought joy to Daniel’s life, and the study of theatre was his passion. He committed himself to learning techniques, styles, and ideologies. He was a true student of the trade. This program’s education and experiential learning focus is a wonderful way to honor our beautiful Daniel,” says the Mills family. The Garden would like to thank the Mills Family for entrusting us to keep Daniel’s legacy thriving in our arts community. The Garden Theatre’s apprentices will be led by Education Director Nick Bazo, Associate Artistic Director Roberta Emerson, and Artistic Director Joseph C. Walsh.
