Editor's note: The following is a press release from Valley View School District 365U. 

Ah, the glories of Camelot! Knights in armor, damsels in distress, and...girls on motorcycles!? It’s all on stage at 7 p.m. Nov. 14-16 at the Brooks Middle School production of “The Once in the Future King.”

King Arthur has been forced to retreat through a portal to the future created by Merlin when Camelot was captured by the forces of evil.
