The Production Team behind Kempenfelt Community Theatre’s production of Spamalot
Kempenfelt Community Players are excited to bring you the utterly silly Tony and Grammy award winning Spamalot, Eric Idle’s stage version of Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Spamalot is a spoofy and silly treat for all Monty Python fans in this area. With a rousing musical score, you can expect some absurdity and to be laughing a lot! Our show runs February 8 – 17, 2013 at the Georgian Theatre in Barrie.
Spamalot tells the tale of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table as they embark on their quest for the Holy Grail. Ridiculous kings and leaders, coconut-clopping hoofbeats, flying cows, taunting Frenchmen and show-stopping musical numbers are just a few of the reasons you’ll love Spamalot.
KCP’s cast, crew and production team have been hard at work for months in lead up to this Friday’s opening night. KCP has a huge team of supporters and volunteers; this is just a snapshot of some of those folk who work tirelessly behind the scenes. We look forward to seeing you on Friday night at the opening of Spamalot!
