Hank, who has been studying astronomy, predicts an eclipse of the sun and is hailed a great wizard. He is knighted 'Sir Boss' and sets about modernizing Camelot complete with telephones, bicycles and T-shirts. But the king's wicked half-sister plots against Camelot, planning an invasion with her own army. How 'Sir Boss' overcomes the evil plot and finds his way back to Hartford, Connecticut, provides fun and excitement for everyone. Playing time approx. 1 hour.
