Playing the optimistic King Arthur is Richard Harris, who starred in the 1967 film version of the classic tale of idealism and love.
Arthur envisions a world where laws govern, violence is obsolete, and might is used for right. With his Queen Guenevere (Meg Bussert) by his side he sets up the round table where knights gather and no one is more important than the other.
Lancelot (Richard Muenz) hears of the idealistic king and his round table and travels from France to join this new order. Lancelot and Arthur become best friends, and soon Lance and Guenevere discover a strong attraction between them, thereby putting in jeopardy everything good Arthur has accomplished. When Arthur's illegitimate son arrives to claim his heritage to the throne, he sets out to destroy everything his father has built.
This tale of heroics, love, and justice is a wonderful musical with songs like "I Wonder What the King is Doing Tonight," "If Ever I Would Leave You," and the title song, "Camelot," which inspired Jacqueline Kennedy to compare her husband's administration to that of the idealistic King Arthur.
