I am off to Spamalot tomorrow.
Looking forward to seeing Tim Curry, and of course going back in time to the 1970's when I used to love watching Monty Python on TV . I worked at a travel agency then and if we had no customers we would all imitate what had gone on in Monty Python. I remember doing the ministry of funny walks and our boss walked in . oooooooooo was I embarrassed. Tomorrow I will probably do the same thing in the west end and wont care two hoots who sees me. ;D

I'm there 5th Dec and I really can't wait I might even invest in the rabbit slippers they're selling as merchandise... Tim Curry is a master and is my total reason for going I have to see him onstage at least once before I die

woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo OMG OMG OMG you just gotta go see it. My jaw is aching I smiled and laughed all the way thru, there wasnt a single dull or boring bit in the whole show. Full of singing and dancing, spectacular cossies, scenery, true to Monty Python. You just gotta see the Black Knight ( he who has his arms and legs cut off. There is derogatory reference to Andrew Lloyd Webber and his musicals and they do take the mickey in one song/dance very colourful costumes but I didnt take the hump). Tim Curry amazing voice. Yes I did the ministry of silly walks, plus i pretended I was on a horsey. much to Seasons disgust and embarrassment. I could so see some of our Joe boys in this show. Sir Lancelot turns out to be Gay, fantastic scene. Plague scene is so funny.... but I'm not dead. At the finale we were showered with an abundance of confetti. Any seat in the stalls will be a good seat. Beware a member of the audience is taken on stage. Afterwards whilst walking in Piccaddilly met up with Taylor James who is now in Guys and Dolls. Very fetching in his motorbike gear. I dont know him personally but Season does. Book your tickets NOW. Lynda xxxx ;D

Season, have just realised why the traffic was extra heavy in west end last night it was the premiere of the new James Bond film. We should have gone and said hello to Daniel Craig ............ not.

As Lynda quite rightly said - Spamalot is fantastic. I'd recommend it to everyone. I guarantee you'll have "I Am Not Dead" or " The Song That Goes Like This" stuck in your head for days!!! Along with the Spam sandwiches and Ale you can also buy coconuts so you can join Lynda in pretending to be on a horsey. Doing it down the platform at Birmingham International Station was so NOT a good look but then I was still on the train ;D and still singing The Song That Goes Like This!!!! As for Tim Curry - that guy is awesome.
