IS IN THE WORKS!
Get ready for The Concord Players' rollicking spring production of Monty Python's SPAMALOT! Based on the iconic movie, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, SPAMALOT parodies Arthurian legend with such beloved and memorable characters as
King Arthur and his knights, the Lady of the Lake, the Black Knight,
the Knights Who Say Ni, and the ever-popular Not Dead Fred. There
is truly something for everyone except for children, the faint of heart,
and the chronically uptight--truly enjoyable for all who are "not yet
dead."
The multi-talented cast features Craig Howard as King Arthur, Chris
Holownia as Robin, and Quinton Kappel as Lancelot. Andrew Swansburg
plays Patsy, Lonnie Powell is Galahad, and Anthony Huntington plays
Bevedere. Joshua Wright is the Historian/Herbert and Sarah Jackson plays
the Lady of the Lake. The male ensemble is comprised of Crisanto
Guadiz, Joe Kandra, Mike Giblin, Bob Pascucci, Roger Alix-Gaudreau, and
Mike Cicolella. Heather Pruiksma, Caroline Kurman, Jenna Leavitt, Sarah
Cadarette, and Brianna Bensenouci make up the women's ensemble.
SPAMALOT is directed by Brian Kelly, with music direction by Kate Engel Meifert,
and choreography by Katie Alexander. It is produced by Doug Cooper, Pam
Holleman, and Tom Sikina. SPAMALOT will
feature costumes by Kathy Booth and Pat Kane and will be stage managed
by Paula McNabb. The amazing and dazzling set, designed by Brian Harris,
is sure to enthrall.
SPAMALOT's
book and lyrics are by Eric Idle, with music by John Du Prez, Eric
Idle, and Neil Innes.Tickets, priced at $25, will go on sale in the
spring. SPAMALOT runs April 25, 26, May 2, 3,
