SALT LAKE CITY (PRWEB) April 30, 2018
Salt Lake Community College’s Grand Theatre will host the hilarious Monty Python’s Spamalot May 17 through June 19. Winner of the 2005 Tony Award for Best Musical and three Drama Desk awards, this outrageously funny spoof of the King Arthur legend is not to be missed.
Lovingly ripped off from the 1975 film “Monty Python and the Holy Grail,” follow King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table on their quest for the Holy Grail. Rude Frenchmen, cancan dancers, the Lady of the Lake and her Laker Girls, killer rabbits, catapulting cows and the somewhat odd knights who say “ni” are just some of the adventures and dangers awaiting King Arthur and his knights of the “very, very, very round table.”
Monty Python’s Spamalot is under the direction of Jamie Rocha Allan, with choreography by Frida Moses and music direction by Michael Leavitt. Tickets range from $17 to $23 and are available at 801-957-3322 or http://www.GrandTheatreCompany.com As always, junior high and high school students and educators receive free admission with their school IDs.
The landmark Grand Theatre is a 1,100-seat venue located at Salt Lake Community College’s historic South City Campus, home of the innovative and state-of-the-industry Center for Arts and Media at 1575 South State Street in Salt Lake City. The theatre dates back to the 1930s and has since with great care and expense retained its Depression-era charm and attraction while also incorporating the latest technology in lighting and sound. For the past four years it has been an official screening venue for the annual Sundance Film Festival. Every season the Grand is host to award-winning theatre and dance productions and concerts that attract arts enthusiasts from all along the Wasatch Front.
