SYNOPSIS

Lerner and Loewe’s majestic Camelot brings the legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table to life with an extraordinary score and a story that poignantly dramatizes the human conflict at the heart of this classic tale. Based on T.H. White’s novel, The Once and Future King, Camelot tells the story of Arthur, a young squire who becomes King after extracting the sword Excalibur from its legendary rock. The musical follows Arthur from a young, ambitious, idealistic King who dreams of creating a just society. Arthur’s dream is inspired by his vivacious Queen Guenevere. Together, they create a kingdom where might works at the service of right and the King serves at a round table with no head — a symbol of collaboration and unity. But just as this utopian vision starts to become reality, everything begins to unravel. When Guenevere falls in love with Arthur’s most celebrated, beloved, and loyal knight, Lancelot, they begin a romance as doomed as it is passionate. Their troubles are compounded when Arthur’s illegitimate son, Mordred, arrives on the scene. In a world of human realities, can Camelot achieve the utopia of which Arthur dreams?

CHARACTERS

 

ARTHUR: (20s - 30s) Low A to Eb. “The Once and Future King.” Arthur is at once generous, compassionate, boyish, unsure of himself, yet an inspiration to others. A rich and complex character, strong actor. 

 

GUENEVERE: (20s - 30s) Low B to High #F.(or higher) Younger than Arthur, a spirited woman quite caught up in chivalry and the exciting possibilities of a promising life. She loves Arthur, but is in love with Lancelot- the famous “love triangle.” 

 

LANCELOT: (20s - 30s) Baritone Low A to D. Abundantly self-assured knight from France who is a passionate disciple of Arthur and his Round Table. “The Greatest Knight in the World,” whose only weakness is his love for Guenevere. Strong singing voice needed FRENCH ACCENT! 

 

MERLIN/KING PELLINORE: (40s +) Non- Singing. Plays both parts: Merlin - The famous wizard who teaches Arthur almost all he needs to know. He disappears after the second scene of the show. Pellinore - A wonderfully funny and stuffily “British” old Knight- provides the most consistent comic relief in the play. Dedicated to Arthur. Very eccentric. 

 

DAP/MORDRED: (20s) Plays both roles: Dap- Lancelot’s squire. Mordred - A truly evil young man, who was “sired” by Arthur when the knight was young and naïve. Thoroughly and fascinatingly unlikeable fellow. Does NOT need to sing well 

 

MORGAN LE FEY/NIMUE/LADY ANNE: (30+) Low C# to High D#. Plays all three parts: MORGAN LE FEY - A powerful sorceress in the Arthurian legend, she is the half-sister of Arthur and aunt of Mordred, who inhabits the forest. She has a great capacity for mischief, and a “hidden” strength- she is invisible. Nimue - The “nymph” that lures Merlyn away. Lady Anne - Lady-in-Waiting to Guenevere

 

TOM OF WARWICK: (Teen) A young boy destined to be a Knight. He wants to fight for what is right and gives Arthur hope for the future. 

 

SIR DINADAN, SIR SAGRAMORE, SIR LIONEL: (30-50) Three named knights who serve Arthur. All devoted to Guinevere. They don’t care for Lancelot. Sing a trio with Guinevere 



ENSEMBLE: Additional singers and dancers - vocal ranges of all types.
