My friends at the Orpheum e-mailed me and asked if I’d help get the word out about Monty Python’s SPAMALOT<\/span>, a musical coming to the Orpheum February 13-18.<\/p>\n

SPAMALOT is based on – or as they like to say, “ripped off” from – the movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail<\/span>, which was voted as the best British film of all time by the United Kingdom arm of Amazon.com and the Internet Movie Database. “Telling the legendary tale of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, and their quest for the Holy Grail,” the press release reads, “Monty Python’s SPAMALOT features a chorus line of dancing divas and knights, flatulent Frenchmen, killer rabbits and one legless knight.” It is currently one of the hottest shows on Broadway and picked up three Tony awards in 2005.<\/p>\n

For more information about SPAMALOT, you can go to the Orpheum’s website<\/a> or the show’s official website<\/a>. To buy tickets, visit Ticketmaster<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As a reward for this “public-service announcement,” I now find myself holding two press tickets to SPAMALOT’s opening night (hey, at least I’m honest enough to tell you when I’m accepting bribes in exchange for blog publicity). Opening night is on a Tuesday, so trivia team, I’ll be absent on the 13th. Also, I guess I’ll have to find a date, since I have an extra ticket. Oh, well, I’ve got a month to figure it out.<\/p>\n

Here are a couple of pics from the show:<\/p>\n
