What: Monty Python's Spam-a-Lot
Based on the cult 1975 film Monty Python and the Holy Grail, this uproariously funny musical follows King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table on a jaunty quest to find the renowned relic. King Arthur and his loyal servant Patsy set out on a quest to find knights to join his Round Table. Along the way he manages to collect a ragtag band of misfits including Sir Robin, Sir Lancelot, and Sir Not-Appearing-in-this-Show (who understandably only makes a brief appearance). They manage to repel a French invasion before encountering the Black Knight, who insists they come up with a musical and take it to Broadway.
