A Connecticut Yankee
by Richard Rodgers, Mark Twain, Lorenz Hart, Herbert Fields


Synopsis
On the eve of his wedding, our hero receives an unexpected visit from his former fiancée.
When his current wife-to-be finds them together, she knocks the fellow out cold with – what else?
– a champagne bottle.
He awakes to find himself transported back to the days of Camelot, where he charms King Arthur's court and is soon put in charge of industrializing the country.
He falls in love, only to have his armor kidnapped by the King's hilariously evil sister.
He awakes from his prophetic dream realizing that he almost married the wrong girl.
This delectable musical comedy, with its willfully silly dedication to pure high jinks, was meticulously restored in 2001 for its presentation by the acclaimed Encores!
series in New York City and is now available with Don Walker's thrilling orchestrations.
