    Monty Python's Spamalot Theater Show Varies

    Monty Python's Spamalot Theater Show in London

    Spamalot is a new musical lovingly ripped off from the motion picture Monty Python and the Holy Grail, starring Broadway cast member Tim Curry (The Rocky Horror Picture Show)

    Lovingly ripped off from the classic film comedy Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Spamalot is the new musical directed by Oscar Winning Mike Nichols, with a book by the third tallest Python, Eric Idle, and an almost but not entirely new score by Eric Idle (no relation) and John du Prez.

    Retelling the legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table, and featuring a number of gratuitously scantily clad showgirls, not to mention the cows, killer rabbits and French people, Monty Python?s Spamalot has been hailed as genius!

    Make the most of this memorable performance and enjoy a pre-show dinner at L'Escargot. This restaurant acts as a tribute to modern art, with Chagall, Miro, Matisse and Hockney hanging on the walls. The interior compliments the food, which is French and consists of risotto, rabbit, wild mushrooms and cheese.

    Ticket Collection:
    When you book your ticket, you will receive a voucher which must be printed. Your tickets will be held at the theatre box office for collection on the day of the performance, no earlier than one hour before performance time. You will be required to present your printed voucher, along with photo ID in exchange for your tickets. At this time, you will receive your ticket and seating assignment.

    Walking Tour of Edinburgh - Walking The Vaults 1 hour - 1 hour and 15 minutes

    Walking Tour of Edinburgh - Walking The Vaults Far below the busy, bustling Edinburgh streets there lies a dark, quiet and forgotten place. These wonderful dark rooms of arched ceilings, fireplaces and 18th century wine vaults lie beneath the South Bridge, one of the city's main thoroughfares.

    The rooms, both small and large, were used as cellars, workshops and houses by those with businesses on the bridge above. No natural light ever reached these rooms. Today, though lit safely, the unique candlelit atmosphere is retained in the vaults.

    The late 18th century was a time of great expansion and innovation in Edinburgh. To improve access from the Old Town to the new developments two enormous structures were built, the North and South Bridges. By 1790 there were almost one hundred businesses active on the South Bridge with their workshops in the underground Vaults below.

    But, there was a darker side too. To the immediate south stands Infirmary Street, where Edinburgh's medical school used to be. It was here that the notorious pair, Burke and Hare, sold the bodies of their murdered victims. Could the vaults have stored a different sort of merchandise?

    As well as lack of natural light, the Vaults suffered from water seeping from the South Bridge above, stalactites are evidence of this. Gradually they reverted from workspaces to storage spaces until they were abandoned altogether. They were re-discovered in the 1980's and now provide unique and unusual venues for hospitality and entertainment.
