Experience CAMELOT as you've never seen it before January 15-18 at the Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza. Director Michael McFadden reimagines one of theatre's most legendary musicals by reworking the original production, resulting in a fresh, tighter show to entertain fans and newcomers alike. An accelerated musical score is enhanced by dramatic percussive rhythms for a renewed feel and modern technology paired with dramatically bold lighting allows the scenery to be more abstract. Patrons rave that "this production was the BEST," and "done exceptionally."

Individual tickets for CAMELOT are on sale now and are available online at TheaterLeague.com and Ticketmaster.com, by visiting the Civic Arts Plaza box office, 2100 E. Thousand Oaks Blvd, or by calling Ticketmaster at 800.745.3000. Groups of 10 or more call 866.31.GROUP.

Broadway's sweeping tale of passion, pageantry and betrayal is the winner of 4 Tony Awards, 3 Academy Awards and has never been more enthralling than in this new production. Intimate and fresh, CAMELOT'S celebrated score includes the classics "If Ever I Would Leave You," "The Simple Joys of Maidenhood," and the title song, "Camelot."

CAMELOT features a book and lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner and music by Frederick Loewe and is based on the King Arthur legend adapted from the T.H. White novel The Once and Future King. This all-new production is directed by Michael McFadden and features Scenic Design by Kevin Depinet, Lighting Design by Mike Baldassari and Sound Design by Craig Cassidy.

Taught well by Merlin, King Arthur, with his beautiful new queen Guinevere, rule the kingdom of CAMELOT with new ideals, bringing peace to a troubled land. With the addition of the dashing Sir Lancelot to the Knights of the Round Table, one of the most fabled love triangles of all time ensues. Mordred, King Arthur's illegitimate son, catches on and sees a kingdom in chaos and attempts to destroy all that is CAMELOT!

The original 1960 production ran on Broadway for 873 performances and spawned several revivals, foreign productions and the 1967 film. The original cast album was America's top selling LP for 60 weeks.

The CAMELOT tour for North America is produced by Phoenix Entertainment by special arrangement with Tams -Witmark Music Library, Inc. www.phoenix-ent.com or www.tamswitmark.com.
