Ogunquit Playhouse presents: Spamalot !

This hilarious musical comedy is now playing at the Ogunquit Playhouse. The show will run through September 11th 2010.


Spamalot is based on the 1975 cult classic film, Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The plot remains very much the same which, of course is a clever spoof of the Knights of the Round Table.

Charles Shaughnessy ( from T.V.'s The Nanny and Mad Men ) plays King Arthur who is on a quest from God to find the Holy Grail. The Lady of the Lake is played by Rachel York and is truly a delite.

Call the box office at (207)646-5511 for tickets and showtimes, or go online at http://www.ogunquitplayhouse.org
