Monty Python's Spamalot
DATE: March 6, 2013
Back by popular demand, the quest for the Holy Grail returns to the IU Auditorium stage in Monty Python’s Spamalot, the hit musical that spoofs famous historical events and pokes fun at classic Broadway musicals.

Lovingly "ripped-off" from the internationally famous comedy team's most popular motion picture, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Spamalot is the winner of three 2005 Tony Awards including Best Musical and Best Director (Mike Nichols), as well as the Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle awards for Best Musical.

In Spamalot King Arthur and his assistant Patsy, who trails behind Arthur banging two coconuts together to make it sound like he is riding a horse, wander the lands recruiting Knights of the Round Table and searching for the Holy Grail. The Knights run into hysterical characters and astounding oddities appropriate only for a Monty Python creation.

This King Arthur tale portrays the same mockery and spirit of the original film, featuring the Knights of the Round Table and plenty of men in tights, but with some notable additions: up-to-the-minute pop culture references, the Los Angeles Laker Girls, and a giant wooden rabbit. The musical seizes the stage with an astonishing comedic drive and sense of adventure that surpasses the remarkable legacy of the film.

• TIME: 8 p.m.

• COST: IUB students $20-$41/general admission $38-$62

• WHERE: IU Auditorium, 1211 E. Seventh St., Bloomington. 855-1103    www.iuauditorium.com
