Spamalot - funnier than the Black Death!

Monty Python’s Spamalot gallops out to bring this hilarious production to the Weymouth Pavilion theatre (to the sound of banging coconut shells). 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.

Directed and Musically Directed by the renowned, and very talented Lee Redwood with choreography by Damaris Fowler, this latest production from WOS will be sure to have you laughing in the aisles and all the way home and bring you every inch of a West End performance… “Ni!”
