Two River Theater presents Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe's Camelot, directed by David Lee with music direction and orchestrations by Steve Orich (Jersey Boys) and choreography by Mark Esposito (South Pacific with Reba McEntire). The production will run now through December 14, 2014, with the opening night tonight, November 21 at 8pm.

Performed by an eight-actor ensemble and eight-piece orchestra, Two River's production of Camelot will focus on the youth and vitality of King Arthur, Queen Guinevere, Sir Lancelot, and the Knights of the Round Table. Director David Lee previously directed a critically acclaimed extended production of Nöel Coward's Present Laughter at Two River, which became the second highest grossing show in the theater's history. His new production of Can-Can will launch the season at Paper Mill Playhouse in October prior to a run on Broadway. A nine-time Emmy Award winning director, writer, and producer for television, he is the co-creator of Wings and Frasier, for which he also wrote, produced, and directed.
