Why see Camelot?
One of the world's most enduring musicals, Lerner and Loewe's Camelot first premiered in 1960. It's the tale of King Arthur and the turmoil his kingdom is thrown into by the love between Queen Guinevere and the knight Lancelot. Events are further complicated by the arrival of Arthur's illegitimate son Mordred who plans the downfall of Caemlot. Full of chivalry and magic, Camelot's score includes the title song and If Ever I Were to Leave You. This romantic epic will tour through late 2014 and early 2014.

Beautiful, romantic, funny and more!
Loved the show. Had all my favorite bits of Broadway — great performances, funny, romantic, pulled at the heart strings and gave me that heart soaring feeling where for a moment I think “yes! Yes the world can be better!â€.
Sorkin does wonders with the book. I liked his not so magical take on the story, since after all the story of King Arthur is always morphed and influenced by the writer. And the relevance of the same law applying to everyone and the difficulty of keeping true to ones ideals rather than give in to cynicism could not have been more timely. ... Read more

Amazingly updated classic
I’ve seen the show twice during previews, and I’m going again! For Sorkin fans, his update to the old tale is brilliant and unmistakably Sorkin; the magical, mystical element of the original script are gone - replaced by a grounded, intelligent, and witty King Arthur who sees the future of Camelot much as one would expect a young Jeb Bartlett saw this country when West Wing began. Add a soaring musical score with a very impressive orchestra and 3 leads whose voices give you the chills, and you leave the theater wanting to return. Perfectly rewritten and directed… a must see! ... Read more
