WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – The musical adaptation of the classic comedy Monty Python’s “Spamalot” will be performed at 7:30 p.m. on March 28 in the Elliott Hall of Music. This performance is presented by Purdue Convocations with support from Nancy DiMartino and Stephen Borghi. 

Lovingly ripped off from “Monty Python and the Holy Grail,” this Tony Award-winning musical comedy was written by Eric Idle, with music from the Grammy Award-winning duo of Idle and John du Prez. “Spamalot” follows King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table on their quest to find the Holy Grail. Flying cows, killer rabbits, taunting Frenchmen, and show-stopping musical numbers are just a few of the reasons audiences worldwide continue to adore “Spamalot.” 

Tickets range from $60-$28 and are available at the Stewart Center box office at 765-494-3933 or 800-914-SHOW. Group tickets are also available to groups of 10 more. Call 800-914-SHOW for more details or visit https://purdue.edu/convocations/group-sales
