Review: Loserville at the Union Theatre

Back in 2012 I fell in love with Elliot Davis and James Bourne's musical Loserville when it transferred to the West End following its premiere at the West Yorkshire Playhouse. Sadly the show closed after several months, but now the Union Theatre have revived it as part of their British Musicals season.

Spamalot returning to the West End for a 7 weeks only!


The Monty Python musical Spamalot will return to the West End this summer for an exclusive 7 week run from 24 July until 9 September 2012 at the Harold Pinter Theatre. It will be the touring cast that will transfer with the production, including comedian Marcus Brigstocke as King Arthur, former EastEnder Todd Carty as Patsy and Bonnie Langford as The Lady of the Lake. 

Impressionist Jon Culshaw will play King Arthur from 2 August to 2 September, and then Marcus Brigstocke will return from 4-8 September. The musical has a book and lyrics by original Python Eric Idle, who also co-wrote the music with John Du Prez. The West End production, which ran at the Palace from 16 October 2006 (previews from 30 September) to 3 January 2009, reunited the Broadway creative team including director Mike Nichols and set and costume designer Tim Hatley.
