Auditions for Monty Python’s Spamalot, book and lyrics by Eric Idle with music by John Du Prez & Eric Idle, will be held Monday and Tuesday, March 28 & 29, 2022 at 7:00 pm at Joplin Little Theatre, 3009 West First Street, Joplin, Missouri. The production will be directed by Becki Arnall. The director is looking for a cast of 25 plus, specifically 18 men and 7 women. Auditions will consist of singing vocal excerpts from the show, which will be taught at auditions, and dance auditions. Tap dancing experience is a plus. There will also be cold readings from the script. The show is rated PG-13 for mature content.
Lovingly ripped off from the classic film comedy Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Monty Python’s Spamalot retells the legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table, and features a bevy of beautiful show girls, not to mention cows, killer rabbits, and French people.
Did we mention the bevy of beautiful showgirls? The 2005 Broadway production won three Tony® Awards, including Best Musical, and was followed by two successful West End runs. The outrageous, uproarious, and gloriously entertaining story of King Arthur and the Lady of the Lake will delight audiences as they search for the Holy Grail and “always look on the bright side of life.”
Performance dates are May 18 – 22, 2022.
