Academy Award and Tony Award winner Jeremy Irons will play the role of King Arthur in a one-night-only concert staging of Lerner and Loewe’s Camelot this summer to benefit Irish Repertory Theatre.
As previously reported, Melissa Errico and James Barbour, who played Guenevere and Lancelot, respectively, in the Hollywood Bowl’s summer 2005 production of Camelot, will return to those roles for the upcoming concert.
The benefit concert of the classic musical about the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table will be held June 6 at the Shubert Theatre on Broadway.
Charlotte Moore will direct the evening with musical direction by Mark Hartman. Additional casting will be announced shortly. The concert will feature a full orchestra and a chorus of 50.
Camelot — featuring music by Frederick Loewe and book and lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner — originally opened at Broadway’s Majestic Theatre in Dec. 1960, playing 873 performances before closing Jan. 5, 1963. The premiere company included Richard Burton, Julie Andrews, Robert Goulet, Robert Coote, John Cullum and Roddy McDowall. The classic Lerner and Loewe score boasts such tunes as “If Ever I Would Leave You,” “I Loved You Once in Silence,” “Follow Me,” “I Wonder What the King Is Doing Tonight” and the title tune.
Melissa Errico, most recently seen on Broadway in Irving Berlin’s White Christmas, began her professional career portraying Cosette in Les Misérables, and she followed with leading Broadway roles in Anna Karenina, My Fair Lady, High Society, Amour (Tony nomination) and Dracula, plus roles in the City Center Encores! productions of Call Me Madam and One Touch of Venus. She appeared in a production of Threepenny Opera at the Williamstown Theatre Festival, and her recent Off-Broadway credits include Candida (Drama Desk nomination for Outstanding Actress in a Play), Finian’s Rainbow and Aunt Dan and Lemon. She also starred in the Hollywood Bowl presentations of Camelot and The Sound of Music. Errico’s debut solo recording was titled “Blue Like That”; her new recording is titled “Lullabies and Wildflowers.” For more information visit http://www.melissaerrico.com.
James Barbour was most recently seen as Sydney Carton in A Tale of Two Cities. His other Broadway credits include Assassins, Urinetown, Jane Eyre, Beauty and the Beast, Carousel and Cyrano—The Musical. He has appeared in such films as “Eight Crazy Nights” and has guest-starred on such television shows as “Sex and the City” and “Ed.”
Jeremy Irons won a Tony Award for his performance in the original Broadway production of The Real Thing. The English actor also won Academy and Golden Globe awards for his work in the 1990 film “Reversal of Fortune.” Irons was also Golden-Globe nominated for “The Mission” and “Brideshead Revisited.” Among his London stage credits are Embers and The Rover.

Transformations – opening ceremony with Jeremy Irons on 4th May 2011
Exhibition runs from 4th May – 12th June
National Botanic Gardens Glasnevin
West Cork Craft and Design Guild “Transformations” Exhibition in Dublin and Edinburgh “Year of Craft 2011”
West Cork Craft and Design Guild has organised 2 high profile exhibitions in 2 capital cities for their celebratory “Year of Craft” events. The Guild has been exhibiting in west Cork for 12 years and exhibiting in Dublin will be the first time the Guild has travelled outside of west Cork to exhibit their work.
The title of the show is “Transformations” and focuses on:
• The process – the design, skill and craftsmanship behind the making of individual pieces.
• The Inspiration – i) our raw materials and how we choose them. ii) The West Cork landscape.
Raw materials are the starting point for all craft work, different materials appeal to artists on a visceral level – some even say the raw materials “call out” to them. There are artists who love to work with wool, making felt or spinning and weaving, others love the feel of slippery clay between the fingers, whilst the appeal of working and polishing wood or metal motivates others.
“Our finished work defines who we are as craftsmen and women, but how we choose our materials or they choose us, remains a mystery.”
Members will be doing demonstrations at the weekends and our film “An Inspired Gathering” will be on show in the auditorium.
