Spamalot

Monty Python's Spamalot has been 'lovingly ripped-off' from the screenplay of the Pythons' best-loved film, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, by former Python Eric Idle. Spamalot the musical tells the legendary tale of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, and their quest for the Holy Grail, and features a chorus line of dancing divas (and serfs), killer rabbits, flatulent Frenchmen and a legless knight!

"A truly joyous and triumphant evening" The Daily Express

Spamalot featuring a new score with music and lyrics by Eric Idle and John Du Prez which includes three songs from the 1975 film. This stage musical version is directed by Mike Nichols. Please Note: Recommended for eights and up only.

"It's a wonderful night and I fart in the general direction of anyone who says otherwise"
The Daily Telegraph

"Eric Idle and his fellow-composer John Du Prez's loving rip-off of the movie may well become the hottest alternative panto in town this Christmas... but mainly this is a jolly romp for Python lovers and Spamalot is a buoyant burlesque of musical cliches too... All in all, the show earns a sizable thumbs-up." The Independent on Sunday

"I felt I might actually die of laughter" The Independent

"Spamalot is posh panto for middle-aged boys... but the spoof musical, 'lovingly ripped off' by Eric Idle from Monty Python and the Holy Grail, and directed, as on its triumphant Broadway run, by Mike Nichols, also has about four moments likely to prove irresistible to anyone... Given the huge Monty Python fan base, Spamalot is an almost guaranteed success." The Observer

"Very funny? You bet. You'd have to be a dead parrot not to agree" The Times

"There are plenty of silly jokes here, have no fear... The entire cast enjoys itself tremendously. And it's infectious... If there are moments, as with all Python productions, that strike you as puzzlingly unfunny, they are few and far between. There is a lot to be said for anything that raises silliness to an art form - glorious, irresistible silliness - and puts a goofy grin on your face for the best part of two hours." The Sunday Times
