Don Quixote In England: A Comedy is a satirical play written by the English author Henry Fielding in 1734. The play is a comedic adaptation of the classic Spanish novel, Don Quixote, by Miguel de Cervantes.

In England, Don Quixote encounters a variety of characters, including a group of robbers, a wealthy gentleman, and a group of actors. Throughout the play, Fielding uses Don Quixote's absurd behavior and delusions to satirize contemporary English society and culture.
