A new musical lovingly ripped off from the motion picture, Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Based on this classic film comedy, Spamalot is the blockbuster musical directed by Oscar-winning Mike Nichols, with a book by the third tallest Python, Eric Idle, and an almost but not entirely new score by Eric Idle (no relation) and John du Prez.

Alan Dale, best known on television for playing publishing mogul Bradford Meade in Ugly Betty, has joined the London cast of Monty Python's Spamalot at the Palace Theatre to play King Arthur, following in the footsteps of Tim Curry, Simon Russell Beale and Peter Davison. Currently playing to packed houses at the Palace Theatre the award-winning and record-breaking Monty Python's Spamalot is booking until 27 September 2008.

Directed by Mike Nichols, Monty Python's Spamalot is "lovingly ripped-off" from the film Monty Python and the Holy Grail by Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin. Book and lyrics are by Eric Idle with a Grammy Award-winning score by Eric Idle and John Du Prez. Other members of the Spamalot creative team include Casey Nicholaw (choreography), multiple Olivier Award-winners Tim Hatley (sets and costumes) and Hugh Vanstone (lighting) and Acme Sound Partners.
