Wow, these reviews are all over the place. Backstage.com did not like
the revisions to the show at all. One thing that the critics all do
seem to agree on, though, is the cast. With the exception of mixed
feelings about Michael York, they all love Rachel and company. She
seems to be carrying the show on her lovely and talented shoulders.

**********

Rachel York, tackling a signature Julie Andrews role, makes the
strongest impression, singing gorgeously and investing the character
of the mischievous monarch with charm, grace, and wit. Unfortunately
she can't stir up much chemistry opposite Michael York's wooden
portrayal of Arthur, which lacks conviction, energy, and nuance.
Golden-voiced James Barbour is a dashing and properly pompous
Lancelot, mining the role for maximum humor and musical splendor.
Fine support comes from Eric Anderson as the magical spirit Merlyn,
Time Winters as the befuddled Pellinore, and Shannon Stoeke as
Arthur's conniving bastard-son Mordred.
