Spamalot

The spectacular broadway musical of the movie, Monty Python and the Holy Grail. It was written by Python member, Eric Idle with music by Idle and John du Prez. It stars Tim Curry, Hank Azaria, Sara Ramirez, and David Hyde Pierce.
It is a brilliant production (it had a 12 million dollar budget). Among the best songs are "You Won't Succeed on Broadway," "The Fisch Schlapping Song," and "He's Not Dead Yet."
It's bloody brilliant! You must see it!

"In any great adventure
If you don't want to lose
Victory depends upon
The people that you choose
So listen Arthur darling
Closely to this news
We won't succeed on Broadway.
If we don't have any Jews."

Spamalot

A musical based off Monty Python and the Holy Grail. In the first act, men have two very small fish and slap the women across the cheeks a few times with them. But don't worry- justice is served when the women pull out much bigger fish and knock the guys down, humiliating them.

Rick: "I just saw Spamalot last night."
Jacob: "How was it?"
Rick: "Hilarious. Btw dude, don't ever slap a woman with a fish; she will slap you back even harder with a bigger fish."
