Read what our TM Insiders had to say about Spamalot!
which is what wed expect from Eric Idle. With nods to its Broadway predecessors, Spamalot takes a lighthearted walk through the theater district. This is a fun, silly evening, particularly when Hank Azaria and David Hyde Pierce were at the helm.

This show is pure comedy. You dont have to be a Monty Python fan to get all the cleverly-told and timed jokes in this production, as many of them are aimed directly at musicals themselves. By far, the funniest musical Ive ever seen.
Loved the show. Very funny!! Saw it twice. The seats, however, are very uncomfortable especially in the balcony. Less uncomfortable in the orchestra. At NYC
