Don Quixote

Don Quixote goes out seeking adventure, traveling through various lands, accompanied by the peasant, Sancho Panza. Basilio the barber is the lover of Kitri, an attractive daughter of an inn-keeper, Lorenzo. However, Lorenzo is trying to have his daughter marry the wealthy aristocrat, Gamache. Don Quixote and Sancho Panza arrive at a square filled with merrymakers. Upon seeing Kitri, Don Quixote believes her to be Dulcinea, the woman of his dreams.

Kitri and Basilio hide away in a tavern on the outskirts of town in order to escape from Lorenzo. But, upon being discovered by the pursuing Lorenzo and others, Basilio declares that if he cannot marry Kitri he will kill himself, and takes his own life. Don Quixote, filled with indignation, holds his spear to Lorenzo, and insists that he allow Basilio to fulfil his dying wish and marry Kitri. Lorenzo reluctantly consents, and Basilio, who had been feigning death, leaps up and shares his joy with Kitri.

Don Quixote and Sancho Panza are wandering through the woods. Don Quixote mistakes a windmill for a giant and attacks it, is thrown violently to the ground, and passes out. In his dreams, he then meets the princess Dulcinea (Kitri).

Sancho Panza then encounters a duke and duchess out enjoying a hunt, and pleads with them to assist his master, who has lost consciousness. The duke and duchess invite Don Quixote to their castle. On hearing from Sancho Panza the story of the love between Kitri and Basilio, they arrange to host a wedding ceremony in their castle. A lavish party to celebrate the wedding takes place, with the joyous Kitri and Basilio dancing before the guests.
