Lovingly "ripped-off" from the internationally famous comedy team's most popular motion picture, "Monty Python and the Holy Grail," Monty Python's "Spamalot" tells the legendary tale of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, and their quest for the Holy Grail. Along the way, they encounter the Lady of the Lake, Prince Herbert, Tim the Enchanter, Not Dead Fred, the Black Knight, and the Knights who say Ni. Chorus lines of dancing divas and knights, flying cows, killer rabbits, flatulent Frenchmen, and one legless knight add to the hilarity of this smash-hit musical.

"Spamalot" features a cast of 20 hailing from all over North Jersey, including Mark Smith as King Arthur, George Kelly as his faithful servant Patsy, Melody Lieberman as Lady of the Lake, and the Knights of the Roundtable are played by Mike Gogel (Lancelot), Alan George (Robin), Frank Todisco (Galahad) and Joe DeCelles (Bedevere). Craig Woodward plays multiple roles including Not Dead Fred and Prince Herbert. Alyssa Podolec, Brandon Bennett, Dave McCoy, Dianna Angelli, Donna Bialkin, Hayley Wolosz, Jesse Ginder, Kimberley Merlo, Leslie Silverman, Mark Herrmann, Mike Seidel, SuzAnne Goldensohn, Tom Jeszeck, and Wayne Robinson complete the cast.

"Spamalot" is produced by Carmela and Kenneth Wolosz, with Direction by Kurt Stelzenmueller, Choreography by Terese Opiela, Musical Direction by Rich Lovallo, Traci Bopp and Chick Barnes, Set Design by Ken Wolosz and Costume Design by Michele Rollo and Carmela Wolosz and will feature a 5 piece band.

Rhino Theatre has been presenting quality productions to North Jersey audiences since (2001), and theatre owner Carmela Wolosz says"Spamalot" is by far the biggest and most lavish, with multiple sets and over 150 costumes. "Audiences are in for a real treat and will leave the theatre with their sides hurting from laughter," says Wolosz.
