Spamalot is lovingly ripped from the 1975 film, Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The plot is loosely based on the legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table.
Abosolutely not, though Monty Python fans will certainly recognize many of the scenes in the musical.
Spamalot tells the tale of King Arthur and his knights of the Round Table as they embark on a quest to find the Holy Grail. Throughout the musical, King Arthur encounters various comical characters and absurd situations, including the Knights Who Say "Ni," the Black Knight, the Lady of the Lake, and the Killer Rabbit.
Spamalot features a book and lyrics by Monty Python member Eric Idle and music by John Du Prez and Eric Idle.
Spamalot is 2 hours and 20 minutes, including one 15-minute intermission.
