Don't let it be forgot
That once there was a spot,
For one brief, shining moment
That was known as Camelot.
CAMELOT played for 873 performances on Broadway at the Majestic Theatre and for 518 performances in London
at the Drury Lane Theatre. It starred Richard Burton, Julie Andrews, Robert Goulet and Roddy
McDowall. It has been revived on Broadway several times, most recently in 1993 when it played for 56
performances at the George Gershwin Theatre starring Robert Goulet as King Arthur.
