The Lawyer Show – Spamalot
The Lawyer Show
One of Vancouver’s most important legal events and a valued tradition, The Lawyer Show is a fundraiser for two of Vancouver’s most cherished theatre institutions: Carousel Theatre for Young People and Touchstone Theatre, both registered charities. Every year, twenty or so lawyers take to the boards to prove that acting and the practice of law have way too much in common. Lines are learned, songs are sung, audiences applaud, money is raised, and fun and friendship abound along the way.
The Lawyer Show presents:
Spamalot
Book and lyrics by Eric Idle
Music by John Du Prez & Eric Idle
From the original screenplay by Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, Michael Palin
Lovingly ripped off from the classic film comedy Monty Python and the Holy Grail, SPAMALOT is a new musical telling the tale of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table. It features a bevy of beautiful show girls, not to mention cows, killer rabbits, and french people. Monty Python’s SPAMALOT “raises silliness to an art form” (The Sunday Times) and has been hailed as “a no-holds-barred smash hit.” (The New Yorker).
AUDITIONS FOR THE 2013 LAWYER SHOW will take place from 7pm to 10pm on October 17th and 21st 2012, at the Carousel Theatre Rehearsal Space, 1411 Cartwright St. on Granville Island. Watch this page for more info about how to audition.
