Abstract

Miguel Will, by José Carlos Somoza (premiered in 1997, and Miguel de Cervantes Theatre Prize), imagines a theatrical production of Don Quixote by William Shakespeare. The objective of this article is to perform an analysis of this play with special emphasis on its metafictional features, which coincide with the usual lines of the reception of Don Quixote in contemporary Spanish theatre.
