Monty Python's Spamalot (2006) Original Palace Theatre Programme with Two Tickets – Sandra Dickinson, West End

An original theatre programme for Monty Python’s Spamalot — “A new musical lovingly ripped off from the motion picture Monty Python and the Holy Grail” — presented at the Palace Theatre, Shaftesbury Avenue, London.

This listing includes the original programme together with both original See Tickets stubs from the performance: Wednesday 25th October 2006, 8:00pm, Stalls B6 and B7, £55.00 each. Both stubs are intact and fully legible. Front stalls adjacent pair — an unusually complete and desirable set.

The programme features a magnificent cover illustration in the style of Terry Gilliam’s Python animations: the ornate Victorian facade of the Palace Theatre rendered in watercolour and ink, with the Python knights of the Round Table peering over the rooftop, crown held aloft. The SPAMALOT title is in bold gold and red, with the full “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” subtitle in italic beneath. The back cover carries a period full-page advertisement for Disney’s The Lion King at the Lyceum Theatre, Wellington Street, Covent Garden (“See it now… Remember it forever!”) — a vivid snapshot of mid-2000s West End advertising.

Cast includes: Sandra Dickinson as Miss Dinsmore/Dora Bailey; Peter Forbes as Roscoe Dexter. Sandra Dickinson is one of Britain’s most recognisable and beloved character performers — famous worldwide as Trillian in the original BBC television production of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, and known to millions from Two Point Four Children, Two Ronnies, Cover, Stagknight, and dozens of major film and television roles. She co-wrote and sang the theme to Button Moon, and has extensive West End credits including Singin’ in the Rain (Chichester Festival Theatre) and Murdered to Death. Peter Forbes is a highly experienced stage actor with major credits including the National Theatre, Shakespeare’s Globe, and numerous West End productions. Sandra Dickinson in a Monty Python show at the Palace Theatre is a combination guaranteed to appeal to collectors of British comedy and theatre memorabilia alike.

The full creative team includes Book and Lyrics by Eric Idle and Music by John Du Prez & Eric Idle, directed by Mike Nichols (Broadway original). The Palace Theatre production was the acclaimed UK West End transfer.
