NOW STARRING SANJEEV BHASKAR newly crowned as the new Arthur, the King of the Britons, following in the footsteps of Tim Curry, Simon Russell Beale, Peter Davison and Alan Dale.
Best known as the host of The Kumars at No. 42 and for his appearances in the award-winning radio and television sketch show Goodness Gracious Me.
Lovingly ripped off from the classic film comedy Monty Python and the Holy Grail, SPAMALOT is the new musical directed by Oscar Winning Mike Nichols, with a book by the third tallest Python, Eric Idle, and an almost but not entirely new score by Eric Idle (no relation) and John du Prez.
Retelling the legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table, and featuring a number of gratuitously scantily clad showgirls, not to mention the cows, killer rabbits and French people, Monty Python’s SPAMALOT has been hailed as:
“A no-holds-barred smash”
The New Yorker
“Funnier than the Black Death”
Brother Maynard, Friars Weekly incorporating Nuns Illustrated
“Pies iesu domine donna eis requiem”
Thelonius Monk
NEWS
