title="Eric Idle">Eric Idle</a>, with lyrics and book by Idle. Based on the 1975 film <i><a href="/wiki/Monty_Python_and_the_Holy_Grail" title="Monty Python and the Holy Grail">Monty Python and the Holy Grail</a></i>, the musical offers a highly irreverent parody of <a href="/wiki/Arthurian_legend" class="mw-redirect" title="Arthurian legend">Arthurian legend</a>, with the title being a <a href="/wiki/Portmanteau" class="mw-redirect" title="Portmanteau">portmanteau</a> of <a href="/wiki/Spam_(food)" title="Spam (food)">Spam</a> and <a href="/wiki/Camelot" title="Camelot">Camelot</a>. </p><p>The original 2005 <a href="/wiki/Broadway_theatre" title="Broadway theatre">Broadway</a> production directed by <a href="/wiki/Mike_Nichols" title="Mike Nichols">Mike Nichols</a> received 14 <a href="/wiki/Tony_Award" class="mw-redirect" title="Tony Award">Tony Award</a> nominations, winning in three categories, including <a href="/wiki/Tony_Award_for_Best_Musical" title="Tony Award for Best Musical">Best Musical</a>.

In a miscommunication between the actors and the narrator, the actors sing an introductory song about <a href="/wiki/Finland" title="Finland">Finland</a> ("<a href="/wiki/The_Fish-Slapping_Dance" title="The Fish-Slapping Dance">Fisch Schlapping Song</a>"). The Historian returns, irritated, and tells the frolicking Finns that he was talking about England, not Finland. The scene immediately changes to a dreary, dark village with penitent <a href="/wiki/Monk" title="Monk">monks</a> in hooded robes chanting <a href="/wiki/Latin" title="Latin">Latin</a> and hitting themselves with books. <a href="/wiki/King_Arthur" title="King Arthur">King Arthur</a> travels the land with his servant, Patsy, who follows him around banging two coconut shells together to make the sound of a horse's hooves as Arthur "rides" before him. Arthur aims to recruit <a href="/wiki/Knights_of_the_Round_Table" title="Knights of the Round Table">Knights of the Round Table</a> to join him in <a href="/wiki/Camelot" title="Camelot">Camelot</a>. Arthur and Patsy encounter a pair of sentries who begin debating the probability of finding a coconut in a non-tropical climate. </p><p>Robin, a collector of <a href="/wiki/Plague_(disease)" title="Plague (disease)">plague</a> victims, and <a href="/wiki/Sir_Lancelot" class="mw-redirect" title="Sir Lancelot">Lancelot</a>, a handsome and hot-tempered man, meet as Lancelot attempts to dispose of the sickly Not Dead Fred. Although a plague victim, the man insists that he is not dead yet and he can dance and sing. He begins performing a dance number, but is soon knocked unconscious with a shovel by an impatient Lancelot ("He Is Not Dead Yet"). Lancelot and Robin agree to become Knights together; Lancelot wants to fight in battles, and Robin wants to sing and dance professionally. Not Dead Fred revives, declaring he will serve as Robin's musician, only to be promptly killed by Lancelot. </p><p>While attempting to recruit a peasant named Dennis Galahad, Arthur explains that he became King of England because the <a href="/wiki/Lady_of_the_Lake" title="Lady of the Lake">Lady of the Lake</a> gave him <a href="/wiki/Excalibur" title="Excalibur">Excalibur</a>, the sword given only to the man fit to rule England. However, Dennis and his mother, Mrs. Galahad, are <a href="/wiki/Political_radicalism" class="mw-redirect" title="Political radicalism">political radicals</a> and say that any king who has not been elected by the people has no legitimate right to rule over them. To settle the issue, Arthur asks the Lady of the Lake and her Laker Girls (named after the <a href="/wiki/Laker_Girls" title="Laker Girls">cheerleading squad</a>) to appear before Dennis, which they promptly do ("Come with Me"). Cheered on by the girls ("Laker Girls Cheer"), the Lady of the Lake turns Dennis into <a href="/wiki/Sir_Galahad" class="mw-redirect" title="Sir Galahad">Sir Galahad</a> and together, they sing a generic Broadway love song ("The Song That Goes Like This"). Arthur knights Galahad, and subsequently Robin and Lancelot. Together with <a href="/wiki/Bedevere" class="mw-redirect" title="Bedevere">Sir Bedevere</a> and the "aptly named" Sir Not-Appearing-In-This-Show, a knight resembling <a href="/wiki/Don_Quixote" title="Don Quixote">Don Quixote</a> who promptly apologises and leaves, they become the Knights of the Round Table ("All for One"). </p><p>The five knights gather in Camelot, a deliberately anachronistic place resembling <a href="/wiki/Las_Vegas,_Nevada" class="mw-redirect" title="Las Vegas, Nevada">Las Vegas's</a> Camelot-inspired <a href="/wiki/Excalibur_Hotel" class="mw-redirect" title="Excalibur Hotel">Excalibur resort</a>, complete with showgirls, oversized dice and the Lady of the Lake as a lounge singer reminiscent of <a href="/wiki/Liza_Minnelli" title="Liza Minnelli">Liza Minnelli</a> ("Knights of the Round Table" / "The Song That Goes Like This (Reprise)"). In the midst of their revelry, they are contacted by <a href="/wiki/Portrayals_of_God_in_popular_media" title="Portrayals of God in popular media">God</a> (a recording voiced by <a href="/wiki/John_Cleese" title="John Cleese">John Cleese</a> in the original Broadway production, Eric Idle in the version that toured the UK, and <a href="/wiki/Steve_Martin" title="Steve Martin">Steve Martin</a> in the Broadway revival), who tells them to locate the <a href="/wiki/Holy_Grail" title="Holy Grail">Holy Grail</a>. </p><p>Urged on by the Lady of the Lake ("Find Your Grail"), the knights set off. They travel throughout the land until they reach a castle, only to be viciously taunted by lewd <a href="/wiki/French_people" title="French people">French</a> soldiers. Bedevere comes up with the idea to retaliate by sending them a large wooden rabbit in the style of the <a href="/wiki/Trojan_horse" class="mw-redirect" title="Trojan horse">Trojan horse</a>; however, the knights realize after the fact that they forgot to hide inside the rabbit before the French soldiers took it. Defeated, they leave in a hurry when the French soldiers begin taunting them again, sending <a href="/wiki/Cancan" class="mw-redirect" title="Cancan">cancan</a> dancers after them and throwing barnyard animals at them ("Run Away!"). Arthur and his followers manage to run into the safety of the wings before the French soldiers catapult the Trojan rabbit at them. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Act_II">Act II</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Spamalot&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Act II"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The knights are separated after the French soldiers' attack. Arthur and Patsy become lost in a "dark and very expensive forest". Arthur meets the terrifying but silly <a href="/wiki/Knights_Who_Say_Ni" class="mw-redirect" title="Knights Who Say Ni">Knights Who Say Ni</a>, who demand a <a href="/wiki/Shrubbery" title="Shrubbery">shrubbery</a>. Arthur has no idea where to find a shrubbery, but Patsy cheers him up ("<a href="/wiki/Always_Look_on_the_Bright_Side_of_Life" title="Always Look on the Bright Side of Life">Always Look on the Bright Side of Life</a>") and they find a shrubbery shortly after. Sir Robin wanders the forest with his minstrels ("Brave Sir Robin"), and they encounter the <a href="/wiki/Black_Knight_(Monty_Python)" title="Black Knight (Monty Python)">Black Knight</a>, who scares Robin away. Arthur then encounters the Black Knight and defeats him by cutting off both his arms and legs, impaling his still-alive torso on a door, and leaving to give the shrubbery to the Knights Who Say Ni. </p><p>Arthur and Robin reunite. The Knights Who Say Ni accept the shrubbery, but then demand that Arthur put on a musical and bring it to Broadway "but not an <a href="/wiki/Andrew_Lloyd_Webber" title="Andrew Lloyd Webber">Andrew Lloyd Webber</a>", with the mere mention of his name causing everyone to cover their ears and scream in pain (in the <a href="/wiki/United_Kingdom" title="United Kingdom">United Kingdom</a>, this became a <a href="/wiki/West_End_theatre" title="West End theatre">West End</a> musical; on the tour, they must put on a "Broadway musical"). Robin insists that it would be impossible to accomplish this next task, since a successful Broadway (or West End) musical requires the involvement of <a href="/wiki/Jew" class="mw-redirect" title="Jew">Jews</a> ("You Won't Succeed on Broadway"). Robin proves his point in a wild production number filled with <a href="/wiki/Ashkenazi_Jewish" class="mw-redirect" title="Ashkenazi Jewish">Ashkenazi Jewish</a> cultural references, a list of Jewish celebrities known for their work on Broadway (including <a href="/wiki/Bette_Midler" title="Bette Midler">Bette Midler</a>, <a href="/wiki/Barbra_Streisand" title="Barbra Streisand">Barbra Streisand</a>, <a href="/wiki/Stephen_Sondheim" title="Stephen Sondheim">Stephen Sondheim</a>, and as a joke in the 2023 revival, <a href="/wiki/George_Santos" title="George Santos">George Santos</a>), and a <i><a href="/wiki/Fiddler_on_the_Roof" title="Fiddler on the Roof">Fiddler on the Roof</a></i> parody involving a bottle dance with Grails instead of bottles. Arthur and Patsy promptly set off in search of Jews. </p><p>(In countries that don't have a tradition of Jews in the theatre, the lyrics of "You Won't Succeed on Broadway" are sometimes changed to instead describe the high production standards and acting talent needed to stage a successful musical in that country. For example, in the <a href="/wiki/South_Korea" title="South Korea">South Korean</a> version, Sir Robin sings about recent successful musicals that were staged in <a href="/wiki/Seoul" title="Seoul">Seoul</a> during the previous decade. Meanwhile, members of the ensemble appear onstage dressed as various characters from those musicals. Among these characters are a cat from <i><a href="/wiki/Cats_(musical)" title="Cats (musical)">Cats</a></i>, Kenickie from <i><a href="/wiki/Grease_(musical)" title="Grease (musical)">Grease</a></i>, Kim from <i><a href="/wiki/Miss_Saigon" title="Miss Saigon">Miss Saigon</a></i>, <a href="/wiki/Erik_(The_Phantom_of_the_Opera)" title="Erik (The Phantom of the Opera)">the Phantom</a> from <i><a href="/wiki/The_Phantom_of_the_Opera_(1986_musical)" title="The Phantom of the Opera (1986 musical)">The Phantom of the Opera</a></i>, and <a href="/wiki/Velma_Kelly" title="Velma Kelly">Velma Kelly</a> from <i><a href="/wiki/Chicago_(musical)" title="Chicago (musical)">Chicago</a></i>.) </p><p>While the Lady of the Lake laments her lack of stage time ("Whatever Happened to My Part?"), Sir Lancelot receives a letter of distress from someone who is being forced into an <a href="/wiki/Arranged_marriage" title="Arranged marriage">arranged marriage</a>. He is very surprised to find that the supposed "<a href="/wiki/Damsel_in_distress" title="Damsel in distress">damsel in distress</a>" is actually an effeminate young man named Prince Herbert ("Where Are You?" / "Here Are You"). Herbert asks Lancelot to help him escape. Herbert's music-hating father, the King of Swamp Castle, cuts the rope that Herbert is using to climb out of the window, and Herbert falls to his apparent death. Lancelot is a bit puzzled at the king's actions, but it is revealed that Herbert was saved at the last minute by Lancelot's sidekick, Concorde. When Herbert begins to explain, in song, how he was saved, the king charges at Herbert with a spear, preparing to kill him. Lancelot steps in to save Herbert, then gives a tearful, heartfelt speech to the king about sensitivity on Herbert's behalf. The king correctly guesses that Lancelot is <a href="/wiki/Homosexual" class="mw-redirect" title="Homosexual">homosexual</a>, and Herbert helps Lancelot accept his sexuality in a disco number ("His Name Is Lancelot"). </p><p>King Arthur begins to give up hope of ever putting on a Broadway musical and laments that he is alone, ignoring Patsy ("I'm All Alone"). The Lady of the Lake appears and tells Arthur that he and the Knights have been in a Broadway musical all along (in some productions she also points out Patsy's presence, to which Arthur claims that he sees Patsy as "family" and thus does not always consider him a separate person). Patsy reveals he is half Jewish, but did not previously inform Arthur because "that's not really the sort of thing you say to a heavily armed <a href="/wiki/Christians" title="Christians">Christian</a>." The Lady of the Lake tells Arthur that to end the musical, he must find the Grail and marry someone. Arthur proposes to the Lady of the Lake, and she happily accepts. They plan to marry after Arthur finds the Grail ("Twice in Every Show"). </p><p>The knights reunite and meet Tim the Enchanter, who warns them of the danger of a <a href="/wiki/Rabbit_of_Caerbannog" title="Rabbit of Caerbannog">killer rabbit</a>. When the rabbit bites a knight's head off, Arthur uses the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch against it, knocking down a nearby hill and revealing that the "evil rabbit" was actually a puppet controlled by a surprised puppeteer. A large stone block showing a combination of letters and numbers is also revealed. (The letters are based on the seat numbering system used by each theatre. They are changed from performance to performance to discourage audience members from intentionally booking any of the possible seats. The seat is typically on the aisle in one of the first few rows nearest the orchestra. In the Broadway production and on the tour it is either A101, B101, C101 or D101; i.e., Seat 101 – which is <a href="/wiki/Blocking_(stage)" title="Blocking (stage)">house right</a> of the center aisle – of Rows A, B, C, or D.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In the West End production a word is revealed – DONE, CONE or BONE, referring to D1, C1 and B1 respectively.) </p><p>After pondering the final clue, Arthur admits that they're "a bit stumped with the clue thing" and asks God to "give them a hand". A large hand points to the audience and Arthur realises that the letters and numbers refer to a seat number in the audience. The grail is "found" (with some <a href="/wiki/Sleight_of_hand" title="Sleight of hand">sleight of hand</a>) under the seat, and the person sitting in the seat is rewarded with a small trophy and a <a href="/wiki/Instant_camera" title="Instant camera">polaroid</a> photo ("The Holy Grail"). Arthur marries the Lady of the Lake (who reveals that her name is Guinevere) and Lancelot marries Herbert, who finally gets a chance to sing. Sir Robin decides to pursue a career in <a href="/wiki/Musical_theatre" title="Musical theatre">musical theatre</a>. The King of Swamp Castle attempts to interrupt the finale and stop all of the "bloody singing", but Lancelot knocks him unconscious with a shovel. The company then invites the audience to partake in a sing-along of "<a href="/wiki/Always_Look_on_the_Bright_Side_of_Life" title="Always Look on the Bright Side of Life">Always Look on the Bright Side of Life</a>". ("Act 2 Finale / Always Look on the Bright Side of Life (Company Bow)"). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Musical_numbers">Musical numbers</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Spamalot&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Musical numbers"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Eric Idle wrote the musical's <a href="/wiki/Libretto" title="Libretto">book and lyrics</a> and collaborated with <a href="/wiki/John_Du_Prez" title="John Du Prez">John Du Prez</a> on the music, except for "Finland", which was written by <a href="/wiki/Michael_Palin" title="Michael Palin">Michael Palin</a> for <i><a href="/wiki/Monty_Python%27s_Contractual_Obligation_Album" title="Monty Python's Contractual Obligation Album">Monty Python's Contractual Obligation Album</a></i>; "Knights of the Round Table" and "Brave Sir Robin", which were composed by <a href="/wiki/Neil_Innes" title="Neil Innes">Neil Innes</a> for <i><a href="/wiki/Monty_Python_and_the_Holy_Grail" title="Monty Python and the Holy Grail">Monty Python and the Holy Grail</a></i>; and "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life", which was originally written by Idle for the film <i><a href="/wiki/Monty_Python%27s_Life_of_Brian" title="Monty Python's Life of Brian">Monty Python's Life of Brian</a></i>. </p> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1216972533">.mw-parser-output .col-begin{border-collapse:collapse;padding:0;color:inherit;width:100%;border:0;margin:0}.mw-parser-output .col-begin-small{font-size:90%}.mw-parser-output .col-break{vertical-align:top;text-align:left}.mw-parser-output .col-break-2{width:50%}.mw-parser-output .col-break-3{width:33.3%}.mw-parser-output .col-break-4{width:25%}.mw-parser-output .col-break-5{width:20%}@media(max-width:720px){.mw-parser-output .col-begin,.mw-parser-output .col-begin>tbody,.mw-parser-output .col-begin>tbody>tr,.mw-parser-output .col-begin>tbody>tr>td{display:block!important;width:100%!important}.mw-parser-output .col-break{padding-left:0!important}}</style><div> <table class="col-begin" role="presentation"> <tbody><tr> <td class="col-break col-break-2"> <dl><dt>Act I</dt></dl> <ul><li>Overture – Orchestra</li> <li>"<a href="/wiki/The_Fish-Slapping_Dance" title="The Fish-Slapping Dance">Fisch Schlapping Song</a>" – Mayor, Ensemble</li> <li>"Monk's Chant" – Monks</li> <li>"King Arthur’s Song" – King Arthur, Patsy**</li> <li>"He Is Not Dead Yet" – Not Dead Fred, Lancelot, Robin, Men</li> <li>"Come with Me" – Lady of the Lake</li> <li>"Laker Girls" – King Arthur, Patsy, Laker Girls</li> <li>"The Song That Goes Like This" – Galahad, Lady of the Lake, Women</li> <li>"All for One" – King Arthur, Patsy, Robin, Lancelot, Galahad, Bedevere</li> <li>"Knights of the Round Table/The Song That Goes like this (Reprise)" – King Arthur, Patsy, Lancelot, Robin, Galahad, Bedevere, Lady of the Lake, Company</li> <li>"Find Your Grail" – Lady of the Lake, King Arthur, Company</li> <li>"Run Away" – The French Taunter, French Guards, King Arthur, Patsy, Robin, Lancelot, Galahad, Bedevere, Company</li></ul> <p><br /> </p> </td> <td class="col-break col-break-2"> <dl><dt>Act II</dt></dl> <ul><li>"<a href="/wiki/Always_Look_on_the_Bright_Side_of_Life" title="Always Look on the Bright Side of Life">Always Look on the Bright Side of Life</a>" – Patsy, King Arthur, Men</li> <li>"Brave Sir Robin" – Minstrels</li> <li>"You Won't Succeed on Broadway" – Robin, Ensemble‡</li> <li>"Whatever Happened to My Part?" – Lady of the Lake</li> <li>"Where Are You?" – Prince Herbert</li> <li>"His Name Is Lancelot" – Lancelot, Prince Herbert, Men</li> <li>"I'm All Alone" – King Arthur, Patsy, Men</li> <li>"Twice in Every Show" -
