Wynn Provides Details On Spamalot Opening

Link: Preview Performances for Monty Python’s SPAMALOT at Wynn Las Vegas begin on March 8!


From the broadway.com article:

" For the second year in a row, casino mogul Steve Wynn has snapped up the Best Musical Tony winner for his Vegas casino. Spamalot will open at Wynn Las Vegas in 2007 upon completion of the custom built "Spamalot Experience and Grail Theatre," which will be designed by Spamalot set and costume designer Tim Hatley and show creator Eric Idle.

Lovingly "ripped-off" from the internationally famous comedy team's most popular motion picture, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Spamalot tells the legendary tale of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table and the quest for the Holy Grail. According to production materials, it features "a chorus line of legless knights, men in tights (with legs), killer rabbits and sexy dancing divas." The show won 2005 Tony Awards for Best Musical, Best Director for Mike Nichols and Best Featured Actress in a Musical for Sara Ramirez. "
