Telling the legendary tale of King Arthur and the Knights
of the Round Table and the quest for the Holy Grail in song,
Monty Python's Spamalot features "a chorus line of
legless knights, men in tights (with legs), killer rabbits
and sexy dancing divas." The production also promises
"some of the most unforgettable musical numbers you
will ever see in the theater on this evening!"
If you
haven't figured it out already, Spamalot is an adaptation
of Monty Python and the Holy Grail, the 1975 film that is
the best loved and most successful of the Monty Python screen
ventures. This outrageous new musical stars Tim Curry (The
Rocky Horror Picture Show) as King Arthur and David Hyde
Pierce (Frasier) as Sir Robin. Tony and Academy Award-winner
Mike Nichols serves as director.
