BACK TO TAUNT DALLAS
FOR A SECOND TIME!
Monty Python’s SPAMALOT
Tony Award Winner, Best Musical 2005
The Tony® Award-winning Best Musical of 2005, Monty
Python's Spamalot, will return to the fair city of
Dallas, presented by Dallas Summer Musicals for a two-
week engagement at the Music Hall at Fair Park from
Tuesday, June 14-Sunday, June 26, 2011.
Lovingly "ripped-off" from the internationally famous
comedy team's most popular motion picture, Monty Python
and the Holy Grail, Monty Python's 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.
The original cast recording of Monty Python’s Spamalot
won the 2006 Grammy® Award for Best Musical Show Album.
Based on the Tony Award winning direction of Mike
Nichols and the riotous choreography of Casey Nicholaw,
Monty Python's Spamalot features a book by Eric Idle,
based on the screenplay of Monty Python and the Holy
Grail by Monty Python creators Graham Chapman, John
Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and
Michael Palin, with music and lyrics by the Grammy
Award-winning team of Mr. Idle and John Du Prez.
Telling the legendary tale of King Arthur and the
Knights of the Round Table, and their quest for the Holy
Grail, Monty Python's Spamalot features a chorus line of
dancing divas and knights, flatulent Frenchmen, killer
rabbits and one legless knight.
Monty Python's Spamalot is produced by Stephen B. Kane,
Michael McFadden and Phoenix Entertainment.
Mike Nichols has been acclaimed as one of the great
American directors in film, theater and television. He
has won the Academy Award and eight Tony Awards. He
recently received the Directors' Guild of America Award
for Lifetime Achievement as well as a DGA Award for the
direction of the HBO adaptation of Angels in America.
Casey Nicholaw’s outstanding work on Monty Python’s
Spamalot earned him nominations for the Tony Award, the
Outer Critics Circle Award and the Drama Desk Award. He
followed up Monty Python’s Spamalot with another smash
hit Broadway musical, The Drowsy Chaperone for which he
earned numerous nominations as director and
choreographer.
Aside from his work with Monty Python in films and on
TV, Eric Idle has written a West End play, Pass the
Butler; three novels, including The Road to Mars, The
Rutles - A Mockumentary; and many songs too rude to
mention. He has sung opera, acted in movies, appeared on
television and crossed America performing comedy on The
Greedy Bastard Tour. His diary of his 15,000 mile
journey by bus was recently published by Harper Collins,
and his long awaited sequel The Rutles2: Can't Buy Me
Lunch was released by Warner Video in March. There's no
saying what he might do next...
John Du Prez has composed over 20 feature film scores
including A Fish Called Wanda, A Private Function, The
Meaning of Life, Personal Services, UHF, and Teenage
Mutant Ninja Turtles I, II & III. He has worked with
Eric Idle since 1978.
Monty Python isn't a person, but a group of British
actors and writers (and one American) that performed
their famous comedy show Monty Python's Flying Circus on
the BBC from 1969 to 1974, with subsequent international
fame and success.
