TIME to grab your coconut shells and gallop along to the lower slopes of the Malvern Hills.

Once there head for the town’s Festival Theatre to witness something that is set to be funnier than the black death! 

Spamalot is back in a brand-new production from Selladoor Productions and Mercury Theatre Colchester and it will be on stage at Malvern from Tuesday, March 6 to Saturday, March 10.

Lovingly ripped off from the hugely successful 1975 film Monty Python and the Holy Grail, this ‘spammier’ than ever production is a riotous comedy full of misfit knights, killer rabbits, dancing nuns and ferocious Frenchmen.

Once again audiences are invited top join King Arthur as he travels with his hapless Knights of the Round Table on a divine mission to locate the elusive Holy Grail – with uproarious consequences.


Spamalot was the winner of the 2005 Tony Award for Best New Musical, while it enjoyed a triumphal West End run.

This hilarious show was written by Python legend Eric Idle, who has been entertaining the British public for over 50 years. The funnyman also wrote the score alongside John DuPrez, famous for his work on Monty Python’s The Meaning of Life amongst a host of other big-name scores.


The company includes; Bob Harms, Sarah Harlington, Marc Akinfolarin, Norton James, Matthew Pennington and Gleanne Purcell-Brown and also has comic tunes including Brave Sir Robin, We’re Knights of the Round Table and perennial favourite Always Look on the Bright Side of Life.
