'Monty Python's Spamalot'
Friday, Jun 14 8:00p
Fountain Hills Community Theater
Fountain Hills,
AZ
This 2005 Broadway hit “lovingly ripped off” from the cult movie “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” is becoming a fast favorite in community theater. In addition to such classic film numbers as “Knights of the Round Table” and “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life” (from “Life of Brian”), the cheeky (and very British) comedy features new tunes written by Eric Idle, one of the original Pythons. Shows 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays; and 2 p.m. Sundays June 14-30. Click the Event website link within… Show more

As a mother of two 20-something sons, I felt that us going to Spamalot should be a natural, historical education for them. We attended Wednesday's performance, the second night of its Eugene engagement. I wager that the house will be sold out by the weekend performances.
Act I was nostalgic as the cast reenacts scenes with favorite characters and lines that I used to chant over and over when I was a twenty-something myself years ago. And, before I became concerned that it was just a gltized-up Broadway tribute to the movie, with a sketch here and a sketch there, things change up a bit after intermission. In Act II, related and unrelated plot twists and trips down the proverbial garden path are thrown in. The "Lady of the Lake" has a killer voice. John O'Hurley from "Seinfeld" does King Arthur justice. There's silliness galore, Vegas-esque tunes, chorus girls with the best abs this side of Sin City, flying nuns and, of course, a shrubbery. Even Eugene's duck shooting U of Students are mentioned. Then, add pyrotechnics, cool special effects, a jab at Andrew Lloyd Weber -- AND a surprise award. What have you got? A great show and overall, a great romp!
Go see it and enjoy it as if you were still in your twenties, fellow Baby Boomers. Enjoy the show and cheer out loud when your favorite character comes on stage. Mine was Tim. I hope he heard me!
