Description

One More Seat at the Round Table: A Novel of Broadway’s Camelot (Paperback)
by Susan Dormady Eisenberg

What if the most conflicted lovers in Broadway’s Camelot aren’t Lancelot and Guinevere?

Set backstage during the out-of-town choas of Lerner and Loewe’s now-classic 1960 musical, One More Seat at the Round Table portrays the struggles of feisty drama school grad Jane Conroy, who lands a plum Gal Friday job, and Bryce Christmas, a gifted, if insecure, actor on the verge of his big break. When Jane and Bryce fall helplessly in love during Toronto tryouts, their relationship is tested by mistakes they make and endless work woes: Camelot’s four-hour length, its poor reviews, the illness of librettist Alan Jay Lerner, and the near-fatal coronary of director Moss Hart, who quits.

As Lerner, composer Loewe, and their stars, Richard Burton and Julie Andrews, trudge on to Boston, doubts besiege Jane, who hopes to buck convention and skip marriage, and Bryce, who wants a wife. They also discover hidden strengths as Jane gains agency backstage and Bryce takes charge of his talent. 

But will Jane’s commitment phobia derail their future? Will Camelot become a glittering hit? These questions create a tense roller-coaster ride to the end of Susan Dormady Eisenberg’s wise and witty novel, a story about the transformative power of love and the luminous pull of Broadway as it casts its spell on performers and fans alike.

History

Music Notes

Most Western music is based on a system of notation that evolved around 1600 out of earlier practices. The starting point for any opera is the full score, which contains all individual voices and instruments arranged in a specific order on the page. The written music—representing the sounds a composer creates in his head—then comes to life performed by singers onstage and played by the orchestra.
