Very loosely based on the 1975 film Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Spamalot tells the tale of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table and their quest to find the fabled relic. It features a chorus line of dancing divas (with serfs), flatulent Frenchmen, killer rabbits and a legless knight.
The West End production ran at the Palace Theatre for three years from September 2006 to January 2009 with a succession of King Arthurs,including Tim Curry, Simon Russell Beale and Peter Davison. Full schedule dates and casting for the tour still to be announced.
