Overview
Following rave reviews and huge success at the Harold Pinter Theatre, Monty Python’s Spamalot is continuing its West End run by moving to The Playhouse Theatre from Wednesday 12 November.
Lovingly ripped off from the classic film comedy Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Spamalot is a kind-of new musical with a book by Eric Idle and an entirely new score for the new production, (well, almost) created by Eric Idle and John Du Prez. Spamalot tells the legendary tale of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table and features a bevy (or possibly a brace) of beautiful show girls, witch burnings (cancelled due to health and safety) not to mention cows, killer rabbits and French people.
The show features fantastic tunes more magical than a Camelot convention, including He Is Not Dead Yet, Knights of the Round Table, Find Your Grail and of course the Nation’s Favourite Comedy Song (Reader’s Digest Poll 2010 - before it went bust), Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life.
This new production started its life in 2010 and its current run at The Harold Pinter Theatre continues until 9 September. In this time there have been thirteen onstage moustache incidents, three suspected cases of swine flu (French pigs!), one outbreak of nits and 57 pairs of coconuts used. The cast “Looked on the Bright Side of Life” seven times a week, and yes, everyone has to sing along! The world even sang along when Eric Idle performed the song at the 2012 Olympic Closing Ceremony. Spamalot’s new cast will be announced soon.
