Lee Pelty was best known for his performances in numerous productions of a musical adapted from what Dale Wasserman non-musical 1959 teleplay?
Man of La Mancha Man of La Mancha is a 1964 musical with a book by Dale Wasserman, lyrics by Joe Darion, and music by Mitch Leigh. It is adapted from Wasserman's non-musical 1959 teleplay "I, Don Quixote", which was in turn inspired by Miguel de Cervantes and his 17th-century masterpiece "Don Quixote". It tells the story of the "mad" knight Don Quixote as a play within a play, performed by Cervantes and his fellow prisoners as he awaits a hearing with the Spanish Inquisition. The work is not and does not pretend to be a faithful rendition of either Cervantes' life or of "Don Quixote". Wasserman complained repeatedly about taking the work as a musical version of "Don Quixote".
