And speaking of the second balcony, I could see Sir Lancelot's astoundingly blue eyes even from that distance β they belonged to the equally astounding baritone Robert Goulet. The production starred Richard Burton's gravely Welsh voice and superb acting as King Arthur.
This was in 1960; I was a very young teenager. Even so, I recognized while sitting there transfixed that I would rarely, if ever, see such a magnificent ensemble performing together in my lifetime, and it has been largely true.

I’m jealous! Love “Camelot”, Julie Andrews, and Robert Goulet! Richard Button, although not a professional singer, was perfect.
“If I Could Gaze At You Again” - so beautiful.
What memories you have! Bravo!
That is awesome! What a great memory. I saw Robert Goulet in a production of Camelot in Houston in the late 80’s- this time, he was playing King Arthur!
