Customer Reviews for Monty Python's Spamalot

Utterly Hilarious!
I saw Spamalot today, and it was by far the funniest show I've ever seen. The cast was brilliant and my face hurt from laughing so much!
Best Production of SPAMALOT I've ever seen!
I'm amazed by this production of Spamalot. I'm an avid theatre goer and after having watched the original Broadway cast, the Broadway Revival and a couple of regional theatres doing their renditions of Spamalot I can assure you that this National Tour is by far the BEST version you'll ever seen. The cast's energy is just contagious, the acting, the dialect, the costumes, scenery...ALL on point! Leslie Jackson is amazing as Lady of the Lake, with incredible vocal range, and solid acting chops. I also have to give props to all the Knights of the round table, they will make you laugh until your belly hurts. The choreography is also perfection, and it really adds to the humor of the show. Among very talented cast members the Featured Dancer Mateus Barbosa da Silva was definitely one of the highlights of the show. He wasn't just impeccable on his dancing but he also had perfect comedic timing (which I find it hard to see in dancers nowadays). If you have the opportunity go watch them before they finish the tour!
Hilarious Fun - Loved it!
Had a magical evening watching Spamalot! Cast was fantastic, the show quick paced and witty, with every number leaving you giggling and laughing. Managed to capture the essence of the movie, but weaved in new material to keep things fresh. Got to watch it with 3 generations of family, all loved it, and honestly one of the most enjoyable experiences I have had in a long time - Highly Recommend!!!!! Thank you Spamalot team and the Tobin center for a wonderful night!!
Absolutely joyful!
I saw the original Broadway production, with all of the original cast members, and I can say with out a doubt in my mind that this cast out shines the original BY FAR! Why? Joy. You can see the joy of the experience in the eyes of everyone on stage. They genuinely want to share this experience. They make you laugh, because they truly love being up there - something that is missing from many vetted actors on Broadway. Arthur and his four knights are especially funny! It's amazing how truthful they can make the absurd! Special commendation has to go to Adam Grabau (Lancelot), who is absolutely unrecognizable as each of his different characters - and gives one of the funniest performances I've ever seen in my life!!! Bravo!!! Thank you for such an amazing night!!!
Fun if You're a Python Fan
Saw this Sunday April 15th 2012. If you found Monty Python's schtick funny, you'll enjoy this. Otherwise you probably won't, because there are a lot of "in jokes" in this musical production. (At least this time the cast can carry a tune, unlike Mamma Mia which was a disaster.) The set was fun, the costumes are great, the cast seems to be enjoying themselves. I'd go again.
DISAPPOINTING SPAMALOT
This was my third time at Spamalot having seen it first on Broadway in 2007 (Fantastic!) and the second time at San Francisco's Golden Gate Theatre in 2009 (Very good!). But this third bus & truck production was tacky and not much fun. It it ever comes back to SF I will pass as I've had it with SpamaLESS!
