Olney Theatre Center presents Camelot
November 18 through January 3
This irresistible musical takes you inside the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. Arthur’s dream of creating a utopian kingdom is complicated by love for his new Queen, Guinevere, and friendship with his favorite knight, Lancelot. This ravishing story of passion, chivalry, and betrayal has a gorgeous score that includes “If Ever I Would Leave You,” “What Do the Simple Folk Do?,” and, of course, “Camelot.”
