Monty Python's Spamalot Musical Gets Cast

Posted by simoniker on from the pram-pushing dept.

Frisky070802 writes "Slashdot reported last fall that a musical version of Monty Python and the Holy Grail was in the works for Broadway. A new CNN article talks about the latest news, including casting (Hank Azaria and Tim Curry, as well as David Hyde Pierce of Frasier fame as Sir Robin!) and scheduling. And, oh yeah, it was Spamalot after all.... not Spamelot as the last Slashdot article claimed. Watch for previews late this year and Broadway next spring."

    Inescapable conclusion: you must be one of those rare poor unfortunates, of whom it can truly be said that Monty Python humor is actually too *sophisticated* for you.

    It might be very very bad. It might be good, but then again, it might be very very very bad. It almost certainly won't be great.

    Star Wars quote, Monty Python quote, something about Borgs, Microsoft is so evil, blahblahblah...

    You geeks are so ANSI-standardized! What if a geek would become himself and become truly original.

    I think that geeks are a above the average population though, in terms of self-respect and intelligence.
