Johnny Simons adapted this version from Mark Twain's classic tale after
an enormously popluar Pinocchio Commedia published by I. E.
Clark made his name a household word in a large area of the theatre community. Have you ever wanted
to turn back the clock and visit days gone by? Do you wish that you could have seen Waterloo with your
own eyes or stood in the Colosseum with your own two feet? Come visit Camelot with Hank, a modern day
factory worker who finds himself unexpectedly dropped into a land where wizards still roam the earth,
knights joust in the cause of honor, and the most remembered of kings, Arthur himself, reigns in all
his glory. Your audience will be delighted as Hank steps into this unknown land and immediately proceeds
to turn everthing completely upside down. Armed with merely the basic knowledge of a man of the twentieth
century, Hank astounds the uneducated population and finds himself elevated to a position of authority
where he comes to be known far and wide as "The Boss." Things don't go smoothly for Hank forever,
though, and he quickly finds out that things work very differently in Camelot. 2-act; set, the
kingdom of Camelot in 528; Costumes, consistent with the more grandiose images portrayed in the popular
King Arthur stories as opposed to the more historically accurate dress worn by sixth century Britons.
