http://thewick.org
Hot off their last show, My Fair Lady, comes another classic Lerner and Loewe musical for the Wick in this beloved tale of King Arthur, Lady Guenevere, and the Knights of the Round Table. Includes beloved songs like “If Ever I Would Leave You,” “The Simple Joys of Maidenhood,” and of course, “Camelot.”
Britin Haller with Florida Theater on Stage says “Full of spectacle and warmth, and sure to produce what’s known as theatrical joy in the harshest of critics, Joerder’s Camelot is a richly-staged extravaganza capturing both the grandeur and the humanity of this enduring legendary tale. If you ever needed a reason to wonder why people still talk about Camelot over six decades later, this is it. And with a cast this strong, particularly an exquisite Guenevere who anchors them, this becomes more than a revival, it becomes canon.”
