Maximizing a very small stage, the scenery for Man of La Mancha includes climbable steel frameworks, a well that opens into the crawl space under the stage, and a ship’s ladder that descends like a drawbridge. At the climax of the show, light reveals the stone textured back wall to contain a dramatic stained glass image of a knight on horseback.

Because summer shows at Rocky Mountain Rep run in rotating repertory, the scenery is designed to be struck easily after each performance.
