Photo Flash: First Look at Richard Kline, Mariand Torres & More in Connecticut Rep's SPAMALOT

By:

Connecticut Repertory Theatre (CRT) has staged Monty Python's Spamalot, the Tony Award winning musical comedy with book and lyrics by Eric Idle, music by John Du Prez and Eric Idle as the final show of its 2015-2016 season. The show is directed by Richard Ruiz. Performances will be held in the Harriet S. Jorgenson Theatre from April 21 - May 1, 2016. For tickets and information please visit crt.uconn.edu or call (860) 486-2113. Check out a first look below!

Richard Kline will lead the cast in the role of King Arthur. Kline, best known from television's Three's Company, was last scene at CRT in Neil Simon's The Sunshine Boys, alongside Ruiz. Prior to that he played the Wizard in the National Tour of Wicked, where he performed alongside Mariand Torres as Elphaba. Torres makes her CRT debut as the Lady of the Lake. Torres recently returned from Japan and the world premiere of Prince of Broadway, directed by legendary director Harold Prince and co-directed and choreographed by Susan Stroman.

Monty Python's Spamalot, the musical comedy sensation lovingly ripped off from the film classic Monty Python and The Holy Grail, arrives to spread laughter and cheer throughout the kingdom. As gleefully silly yet wickedly smart as Monty Python, the beloved British comedy troupe that inspired it, Spamalot tells the tale of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table as they embark on their quest for the Holy Grail. You'll enjoy some mostly handsome Knights, a bevy of beautiful show girls, not to mention cows, killer rabbits, and French people, before the familiar sound of clomping coconut shells brings down the curtain on the season's goofiest if satirically dead-on comic delights.
