Kelsey Grammer and Danielle De Niese are sharing an impossible dream: they are leading a revival of a musical not seen on stage in decades. The two are speaking in interviews shortly before “Man Of La Mancha” opens on April 26, the first West End production of the show in more than 50 years.
The Impossible Dream’ is one of the most perfect songs from one of the most perfect stories in our human experience. It is really compelling, beautiful and uplifting. I have been busy rehearsing it and sang it beautifully in the shower this morning!” The song has been performed by Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Andy Williams, Luther Vandross, The Temptations and The Mormon Tabernacle Choir among others. Grammer especially likes the 1966 version by Jack Jones.
