Camelton: The Journey from Canarsie to Qatar and Back Again!
Written and performed by Stephen Cole
With assorted songs
Lyric by Stephen Cole
Music by David Krane* Claibe Richardson * David Evans
Join us for the world premiere of Camelton: The Journey from Canarsie to Qatar and Back Again! at Polaris North in Manhattan. Twenty years ago, Award-winning musical theatre
writer Stephen Cole met his first camel…and he hasn’t been the same since. Stephen tells his hilarious story of writing a musical for the Emir of Qatar. Picture this! Two Brooklyn Jews, some
Middle Eastern producers, flying carpets, Croatian acrobats, Russian ballet dancers, an Italian director, the desert, camels (a lot of camels!) and, of course, music. You will laugh and you will
cry (from laughing) in this outrageous, once-in-a-lifetime, unbelievable-but-true tale of how Stephen and his collaborator wrote the first American Musical to premiere in the Middle East.
The show will be directed by Rick Pulos. Camelton’s original world premiere at the Ryan Repertory Company of Brooklyn, NY was cancelled in 2020 due to the great toilet paper shortage. Running time is approximately 60 minutes.
