WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Longtime Playhouse collaborator David Lee has helmed some of the most successful productions in Pasadena Playhouse history including the multi Ovation Award-winning revival of Cole Porter's Can-Can. In 2010, Mr. Lee returns to kick off the season with a fresh take on the iconic American musical focusing on the three central characters, the power of a timeless love story and the magnificent score. Based on "The Once and Future King" by T.H. White, Camelot was originally directed and staged by Moss Hart on Broadway in 1960.

In musicals, story often becomes diminished by spectacle. But take away those bells and whistles, as in the case of director David Lee's refreshing new adaptation of Lerner and Loewe's Camelot at the Pasadena Playhouse, and character, nuance, and imagination have room to thrive. With the usual pageantry and grand displays of royalty stripped away, the show is now focused most squarely on human interests: relationships, love, and the deceptions people resort to in order to get the relationships and love they want.
