While Spamalot is not the quintensential musical theater piece, it is loads of fun. It was worth the ridiculous price we paid for tickets. If you are a Python fan, you will love it... if you aren't such a Python fan, you'll still love it. It was absolutely the most fun I've had at a show ever. It was like the audience and the actors were all there for fun together. The energy was wild.
At the stage door, all 3 of the "famous" leads- Hank Azaria, the amazing Tim Curry and David "Niles" Hyde Pierce in addition to Chris Sieber and one or two others, were unbelieveably nice and accomodating to the large croud waiting. All 3 went around slowly signing for every person that stuck something out and took pictures for everyone who asked. They all seemed so genuinely appreciative of the fans, of the praise they were given and that we loved the show. It took them all of maybe 10 minutes to get to everyone; it didn't seem that difficult and the fans were very appreciative and polite. I think many other stars can learn a thing or two about being a 'mensch' from this cast.
Kudos to those actors for being down to earth and cool as hell and giving us a great, fun night.
Sara Ramirez didn't come out, but she was amazing... she was something trully unique on Broadway.
