SPAMALOT TO CLOSE
MONTY PYTHON’S SPAMALOT is to end its successful Broadway run in January (09).
The curtain will come down on the stage adaptation of comedy film Monty Python & The Holy Grail at the Shubert Theatre on 18 January (09), after 1,582 performances, according to BroadwayWorld.com.
The cast has included Tim Curry, David Hyde-Pierce and Clay Aiken, who currently plays Sir Robin in the production.
The show opened at the Shubert in March 2005 and it went on to win multiple Tony, Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle awards later that year for Best Musical.
Estimates suggest the show, written by Eric Idle and John Du Prez, will have grossed more than $175 million (£94.5 million) when its run ends. It will have been seen by more than two million people on Broadway.
