Bonnie Langford Returns To SPAMALOT, May 2013

As Spamalot continues its successful West End run at The Playhouse Theatre, Bonnie is to return as The Lady Of The Lake from May 6 2013,following critics' and audiences' unanimous appreciation of her performance in 2012, described as "brilliant" and "Bassey-esque" by The Times and "a sensation" by Time Out.

Also added to the cast is Olivier Award nominee Steven Pacey, who has now returned to the role of King Arthur for an initial four-week run during April 2013.

Having made her first West End appearance at the tender age of seven, and going on to wow audiences around the globe with her enthusiasm, powerful voice and unequivocal style, Bonnie Langford is no stranger to performing.

Bonnie is currently starring as Roz in Dolly Parton's stage version of '9 to 5', performing until April 2013. Her showbiz career began aged just six when she won the talent programme, Opportunity Knocks. As a child she appeared in the television series Just William, the 1974 Broadway Revival of Gypsy (alongside Angela Langsbury) and the movie Bugsy Malone. Bonnie's adult life has seen her perform in top shows such as taking the role of Roxie Hart in Chicago and Guys & Dolls, as well as perform in her own tour, Bonnie Langford Now: And Her Musicians in 2001. She came third place in Torvill & Dean's Dancing on Ice on ITV1 in 2006 and went on tour with them in 2007. Other credentials include Bonnie as one of the original cast members of Cats, as well as playing the lead role in Peter Pan - The Musical at the Aldwych Theatre.

Spamalot's run at The Playhouse Theatre follows Eric Idle's acclaimed performance of 'Always Look On The Bright Side of Life' at the 2012 Olympic Closing Ceremony - the world sang along, and Spamalot audiences get the opportunity to do so too!

Lovingly ripped off from the classic film comedy Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Spamalot is a kind-of new musical with a book by Eric Idle and an entirely new score for the new production (well, almost) created by Eric Idle and John Du Prez.

Spamalot tells the legendary tale of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table and features a bevy (or possibly a brace) of beautiful show girls, witch burnings (cancelled due to health and safety) not to mention cows, killer rabbits and French people. The show features fantastic tunes more magical than a Camelot convention, including He Is Not Dead Yet, Knights of the Round Table, Find Your Grail and of course the Nation's Favourite Comedy Song (Reader's Digest Poll 2010 - before it went bust), Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life.
