Quixotic is an ensemble of musicians, dancers, aerialists, composers, designers, and choreographers collaborating to produce new forms of artistic expression. This inventive group of artists goes beyond the limits of any specific art form to create a total sensory experience for its audience. Quixotic makes performance art interactive and eliminates the barrier between performer and audience.

Quixotic's Artistic Director's include award-winning sound designer & visual artist Anthony Magliano and award-winning lighting designer Mica Thomas.

As one-half of the original duo that co-founded Quixotic in 2004, artistic director Anthony Magliano has proven to be a passionate creative force dedicated to the ongoing evolution of the ensemble since its inception. His artistic sensibilities find their relentless drive within his roots as a percussionist and composer but extend beyond music and sound into visual design and the limitless potential of theatrical technology. In defying boundaries and constantly seeking new forms of self-expression, Magliano has crafted an award-winning career from artistic eclecticism.
