A 1960 musical by [[Lerner Andand Loewe]], shortly after the success of ''[[My Fair Lady]].'' It is an adaptation of T.H. White's ''[[The Once and Future King]],'' following the story of [[King Arthur]].
 
At the start of the story, King Arthur is a young man, anxiously awaiting the arrival of his bride, Guinevere, who shares a similar amount of anxiety. [[Hilarity Ensues]] for a short while before they are married, but Merlin is abducted by Nimue before he can warn Arthur of the perils of the future. King Arthur decides to write a new code of chivalry, "where violence is not strength, and mercy is not weakness," and forms the round table.
