Camelot cover

Camelot: The Shining City is a modern re-telling of the myth of King Arthur, by award-winning playwright James Phillips. Developed in collaboration with Slung Low, specialists in spectacular theatrical experiences, and Sheffield People's Theatre, Camelot: The Shining City is written for a company of over 150 actors, bringing the medieval story to breathtaking life. An epic story told in three parts, this edition was published to coincide with the world premiere, staged on 9 July 2015.

James Phillips's script is a smart piece of work, superimposing elements of mythology on to a near-future dystopian tale of "a world where people have decided that the best way to go forwards is to go backwards". . . . a provocative vision of how riskily we might reinvoke "British values" * Financial Times *
