Camelot

“This CAMELOT is a fresh take on the classic tale. It has a book by Aaron Sorkin, based on the original by Alan Jay Lerner, with the warm support of the Lerner & Loewe estates. Among his many accolades, Aaron is the Academy Award- and Emmy Award-winning writer of The Social Network, The Trial of the Chicago 7, A Few Good Men, “The West Wing,” and Broadway’s recent To Kill A Mockingbird, also directed by Bartlett Sher. But while the book is new, the most beloved elements of the story are intact: the romantic triangle between Arthur, Guenevere and Lancelot; the quest to establish democracy and justice over chaos; the bittersweet wish for the world to be as it once was. And, the gorgeous score is still there including “If Ever I Would Leave You,” “The Lusty Month of May” and the title song “Camelot,” to be played by a 30-piece orchestra using the original orchestrations.”

Honors College students are asked to pay $10 for a ticket to see the performance and arrange their own transportation, typically a group of students travel together to and from campus.
