Monty Python and the Holy Grail to become the musical "Spamalot". This info is months old and I can't believe it got past me.

  • Holy Jesus yes.
  • Hmmm... this could be great - or disapointing. Will it work without the bridging animnation? How would the randomness of the plot translate? Dare I commit heresy and suggest that while Holy Grail has funnier individual scenes (Marxist peasants being the best of the century), Life of Brian is a more coherant and satisfying film?
  • oooh jb go burn yourself at a stake. Personally I love the witch scene (compare with opening of act two in Arthur Miller's 'The Crucible' and you'll see why I had a had such a hard time saying the lines with a straight face). But Life of Brian's Palestinians discussing benefits of being Roman citizens beautiful too!
  • [It's only a model.]
  • Shh!
  • Will it work without the bridging animnation? Ask me the questions, bridgekeeper. I'm not afraid.
  • The Camelot Song done with Lego. Not YouTube, neither.
  • I enjoyed a performance of Verdi's Requiem tonight. Unfortunately, I and my sprog were overcome with giggle fits every time "Pie Jesu Domine: dona eis requiem" came up, and there was much whapping of foreheads with programmes, to the disapproval of the mink-clad set. Heh heh.
  • A friend of mine saw Spamalot this past weekend. She gave it two "Meh's" out of three.
  • Awwww - I was given the coolest Mother's Day prezzink ever.
  • Unfortunately, I and my sprog were overcome with giggle fits every time "Pie Jesu Domine: dona eis requiem" came up, and there was much whapping of foreheads with programmes I wanna go to teh concertz wid uz! Way to enjoy.
