About
You’ll likely enjoy Camelot if you want a big, romantic musical in the Arthur legend world, but Not for you if you dislike long, talk-heavy musicals or need strong singing performances in songs like those in Man of La Mancha or Oklahoma!
Pros: lavish sets and costumes; memorable musical score; engaging love triangle | Cons: overly long runtime; hard-to-follow dialogue; uneven singing performances
