Except (Mostly Not) because it was live in July but not now. I think.
For the first time in more than three decades, comedy legends Monty Python will perform live on stage together this year. Broadcast from London’s O2 Arena, Monty Python Live (mostly) will play in cinemas around the globe on Sunday 20 July. At a combined age of just 358, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin will once again perform some of their greatest hits, with modern, topical, Pythonesque twists.
The Telegraph wrote in July, ” If the best parts were predictable they were tremendous fun too. The arrival of the Spanish Inquisition showcased Python’s gift for high-strung irascibility; Dead Parrot blurred the divide between end-of-pier and Beckett-esque existentialism.” The show ends with ‘Always look on the bright side of life.’ Not rated.
