Geneseo Trip to Spamalot at GEVA
Medieval Studies at Geneseo invites you to Monty Python’s Spamalot at GEVA Theatre on Sunday, October 4 at 2 p.m. This is a new musical lovingly ripped off from the motion picture Monty Python and the Holy Grail. This outrageous musical parody tells the legendary tale of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table. Embarking on their quest to find the Holy Grail, the Knights’ shenanigans include flying cows, beautiful show girls, killer rabbits, and flatulent Frenchmen – all while performing heart-stopping and hilarious musical numbers. Winner of three Tony Awards, including Best Musical. Transportation from Geneseo’s campus to GEVA Theatre will be provided thanks to a grant from Geneseo’s Upstate Escapes program. Tickets are $40 each and MUST be purchased by Friday, September 18. Please contact Dr. Jess Fenn (fenn@geneseo.edu) for tickets or with any questions.
