Diamond Head Theatre Presents SPAMALOT, 7/18

Diamond Head Theatre (DHT) proudly presents Spamalot! Monty Python's Spamalot is a musical comedy "lovingly ripped off from" the 1975 film Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The show tells the legendary tale of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table and the quest for the Holy Grail, and features a bevy of beautiful show girls, not to mention cows and killer rabbits!

But Spamalot is not just for Python fans ... the show is filled with spoofs of many other musicals, including the productions of Andrew Lloyd Webber, "LES MISERABLES" and "Fiddler on Roof." Seen by more than two million people in its initial Broadway run, the show won three Tony Awards, including Best Musical.

Playing "King Arthur," The King of England who sets out on a quest to form the Knights of the Round Table is Laurence Paxton. He is joined by Venis Goodman "Patsy," Tony Young "Sir Robin," Garrett Hols "Sir Lancelot," Butch DePonte-Merideth "Sir Galahad," Braddoc Decaires "Sir Bedevere" and Kalia Medeiros as "The Lady of the Lake."

Directed and choreographed by Andrew Sakaguchi, Spamalot will be playing from July 18 to August 3, 2014. Performances are at 8 p.m. Thursday - Saturday, 4 p.m. Sunday, and Saturday matinees at 3 p.m. on July 26 & August 2.
