Camelot was an instant hit when it opened on Broadway in 1960, boasting a tuneful score by Frederick Loewe set to the witty lyrics of Alan Jay Lerner. Almost 50 years later, this musical retains much of its luster, as shown by Pasadena Theatre Company's current production of the classic tale of King Arthur, Guinevere and the Knights of the Round Table. It benefits from the efforts of co-directors Chuck Dick and Beverly Van Joolen, music director Tom Jackson and the skills of 35 local performers and behind-the-scenes craftsmen and technicians.

The first Pasadena Arts Festival of Expression will be more of a contemporary vaudeville show featuring a range of acts from a burlesque revival to punk bands and a circus-like sideshow.
