Camelot Auditions

 
Auditions for the Tred Avon Players production of Lerner and Loewe's musical, Camelot are scheduled for Tuesday, May 24th and Tuesday, May 31st at 6:30 p.m. at the Oxford Community Center, 200 Oxford Road in Oxford. The show opens on Thursday August 18th and runs for eight performances through Sunday August 28th. Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings at 7:30 pm. and Sunday afternoons at 2:00 p.m.
 
Casting calls for 8 Revelers (storytellers) who also play the various roles listed below. May cast up to 12 individuals. All parts require singing.
 
The roles are:
King Arthur – Male, age 20s-50s
Guenevere – Female, age 20s-50s
Sir Lancelot – Male, age 20s-50s
Mordred (also plays Squire Dap) – Male or female, age 20s-40s
Sir Dinaden – Male or female, age 20s to 60s
Sir Sagramore – Male or female, age 20s-60s
Sir Lionel – Male or female, age 20s-60s
Tom - Young looking, male or female, age 16-30s
 
This small cast version of Lerner and Loewe's Camelot has been adjusted to suit a smaller ensemble. All the songs are there, with new orchestrations, and the smaller cast size allows the Revelers to sing, dance, and interact with the audience as they tell the story.
 
Borrowing from the Arthurian legends, Lerner and Loewe’s Camelot is the duo’s fantastical masterpiece which triumphed on Broadway in a legendary original production that led to a film version, and numerous revivals in New York, London and across the globe. Its Original Broadway Cast Album topped the charts for 60 weeks, with a rich score boasting such gems as "If Ever I Would Leave You," “I Loved You Once in Silence,” "The Lusty Month of May," and of course, "Camelot."
 
An idealistic King Arthur hopes to create a kingdom built on honor and dignity, embodied by his Knights of The Round Table. His Ideals, however, are tested when his lovely queen, Guenevere, falls in love with Lancelot, and the fate of the kingdom hangs in the balance.
