It has been confirmed that Les Dennis and his Life’s Too Short co-star Warwick Davis will star in Monty Python’s Spamalot as King Arthur and Patsy.
Les Dennis has starred in Chicago, Me and My Girl, Hairspray and Legally Blonde The Musical while Spamalot will mark Warwick Davis’ West End debut.
Les Dennis said: "As a kid I was always a massive fan of Monty Python so when Spamalot came to town I thought 'I'd really love to be in that'. And now I'm excited that I'm actually not just in it, but playing the lead role. I'm really looking forward to always looking on the bright side of life!"
Warwick Davis said: "I'm delighted to be making my West End debut at the Playhouse Theatre. I've been in hit TV shows and blockbuster Hollywood movies, but you are never really taken seriously as an actor until you've done a play. That's why I jumped at the opportunity to play Patsy in Spamalot."
Les Dennis will play King Arthur from 3rd August until 2nd November 2013 and Warwick Davis will play Patsy from 23rd September until 19th October 2013.
The West End production of Spamalot currently stars Bonnie Langford as The Lady of the Lake. Spamalot is a 'kind-of new musical' with a book by Eric Idle and an entirely new score for the new production created by Eric Idle and John Du Prez.
