Boise Broadway Show #2

On Saturday, I went to go see Spamalot, Monty Python's Musical Version of Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I LOVE this show. The first time I saw it was in New York on Broadway with Jake Fulcher, David Ketchum and Marc Ewins. We all were dying laughing the entire time. The original sountrack is with Hank Azaria, David Hyde Pierce, Sara Ramirez and Tim Curry, to mention a few, which is nothing less than spectacular.

This time was no different.

The best part about seeing a show before is that you already know what's coming. So often, you can spend a show, especially one based off of a movie or something familiar to the public, anticipating what well-known ideas will pop up. This is especially true in a show based off of Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

This being the second time I saw it, I already knew what was coming up (also I know ALL the music), so I could enjoy the quicker jokes, the dancing, watching the actors who you maybe weren't supposed to focus on. It was also a kick to listen to the response of the audience, who may not have known what specifically was coming. There were some great reactions with certain cahrcters arrived on stage.

Like these guys.

Of course this.

This got many, many cheers.

He got the biggest laugh of all for some reason.

Can you guess what my favorite line in this song is? ( have a drink.....and a pee.... we'll be back for act three....... two sir.... twooooooo!)

And I love how this just mocks everything. (Also Sara Ramirez is amazing...)

Spamalot is an incredible show- some bizarre moments of course, but what do you expect from

Eric Idle and the rest of the Python crew? If you ever have the opportunity to see it, GO!

I certainly laughed a lot but this caused me to almost die.

Patsy: I'm Jewish. On my mother's side.

King Arthur: Why didn't you say so before, Patsy?

Patsy: Well, it's not something you say to a heavily armed Christian.

Also.... side note... when I was in high school going to se musicals, the glossy programs were $10. Now they are $20. Are they kidding? What's up with that!?
