This 2005 Tony winner for Best Musical is a hilarious musical comedy based on the iconic 1975 film, Monty Python and the Holy Grail. An absurdist farce of the musical theatre canon, Spamalot follows King Arthur in his quest throughout England to recruit his Knights of the Round Table. After gathering in Camelot, Arthur and his gang of misfits are sent on a quest to find the Holy Grail. Throughout this bizarre journey the group comes in contact with many challenges and characters that continue to test their strength and wits, neither of which are impressive. Spamalot is both a celebration and critique of the human condition. It is a glimpse into a society that seems to exist simultaneously in the Medieval Period as well as 2020.
