We saw Camelot on Sunday and it was spectacular! Andrew Burnap gives a perfect performance as Arthur, Phillipa Soo is wonderful and Jordon Danika sings and acts beautifully. I have seen "Camelot" on Broadway three times (Richard Burton 1980, Richard Harris and Robert Goulet), this production is the best.
I wasn't sold on Andrew Burnap but with this and the news that Sorkin is rewriting the book, he's like a perfect Sorkin protagonist. I'm getting more and more excited!
Saw him yesterday and indeed he is, his Arthur is so earnest, sweet, witty but adorably socially awkward… Gosh here is a young Jed Bartlett right there
@@05sarrie It is very hard to get Burton's performance out of my head and be objective about anyone else. I would like to hear Jordan sing this though. Soo is interesting, I heard her in the Lusty Month and that was great - in other things I was not taken with her voice, so you never know.
Gosh. When you think of how the story ends. 😢😢 Don’t let it be forgot That once there was a spot For one brief shining moment That was known as Camelot.
I really hope that publicity for the revival will eventually include a performance of Arthur's soliloquy at the end of Act 1 and 'What do the simple folk do' - just like Burton and Andrews did on Ed Sullivan
It sounds like Camelot is not as literally magical anymore (though it looks like it still takes place in a “far away” sort of atmosphere)…it makes me wonder what the rest of the new script will be like
