“MONTY PYTHON’S SPAMALOT”
invades Los SPAMgeles!
"PLENTY OF LAUGHS… ROUSING SCORE
A great date-night musical. Within the heart of each of the remarkable group of knights and louts who make up the cast beats the soul of a rollicking, witty clown."
- Laurence Vittes, The Hollywood Reporter
"Monty Python has a way of coaxing you into its giddy time machine for a journey that, no matter how far-flung, usually ends up in the troupe’s delightfully familiar backyard of anachronistic zaniness ... SNAZZY CHOREOGRAPHY."
- Charles McNulty, Los Angeles Times
"OUTLANDISH PRODUCTION NUMBERS.
Sumptuous sets and costumes ."
- Bob Verini, Variety
"RUN DON’T WALK...IT IS THE BEST SHOW I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE."
- Allie Mac Kay, KTLA
“IRRESISTIBLE ORGY OF MADCAP MEDIEVAL MIRTH.
Thanks to a relentless stream of irreverent jokes, a zesty score, and a crackerjack ensemble... skillfully crafted by Eric Idle, John Du Prez, Mike Nichols, and Casey Nicholaw. John O’Hurley is a continual delight."
- Les Spindle, Backstage
