‘A Wonderful World: The Louis Armstrong Musical’ review: A lifeless Satchmo show on Broadway

wife story that fails to capture Armstrong, the artist. The “Hello, Dolly!” singer, who died in 1971, indeed married four times and was a cheating jerk to that quartet of women.His turbulent relationships with them as his fame skyrockets — from second trumpet in King Joe Oliver’s (Gavin Gregory) jazz band to Hollywood icon — punctuate “A Wonderful World.” That’s personally messy, yes, but it’s a theatrically tricky choice by book writer Aurin Squire to center a musical filled with many, many (did I say many?) upbeat tunes around spousal quarrels and infidelity.The show’s best numbers actually belong to the actresses who play the wives, each one fabulous.Think of it like “Nine” or “Six” — but “Four.”Armstrong’s ladies are Daisy Parker (Dionne Figgins), a “switchblade hooker”; practical piano player and manager Lil Hardin (Jennie Harney-Fleming); fan Alpha Smith (Kim Exum); and Cotton Club singer Lucille Wilson (Darlesia Cearcy), who finally holds him accountable for his zipper.Their personalities are as distinctive as their knockout voices.

‘Monty Python’s Spamalot’ on Broadway: Knights Out

Monty Python’s Spamalot. The spoof, based on the 1975 film Monty Python and the Holy Grail, is back on the Broadway boards after a critically acclaimed run earlier this year at the Kennedy Center.Whether you’ll look on the bright side with approval or wish that this quest had more grit may depend upon your expectations of production values and your threshold for unabashed silliness.Tony-winner James Monroe Iglehart leads a top-notch cast as the medieval King Arthur, whose aim is to recruit other men to his Round Table and guide them to the utopia of Camelot.Camelot, as it turns out, is a glitzy casino — an ideal setting for a song and dance routine.

‘Monty Python’s Spamalot’ Broadway review: An OK copy of the original

Monty Python would often dryly announce, “and now for something completely different.”Well, not much is different about the revival of “Monty Python’s Spamalot,” the musical that’s based on their 1975 film “Monty Python and the Holy Grail,” that opened Thursday night at the St. James Theatre.

‘Spamalot’ Review: An Overdone Broadway Revival Opts for Excess Over Ingenuity

Naveen Kumar It may be appropriate for a musical with “spam” in the title to feel canned. But it’s a shame that the first Broadway revival of “Monty Python’s Spamalot,” now playing at the St. James Theatre, struggles to find anything fresh about material covered in a half-century of dust.

‘Spamalot’ Broadway Review: The Once And Future Python Classic Returns To Taunt Another Day

Spamalot opens on Broadway tonight, and it’s safe to say the Middle Ages haven’t been this funny since, well, the last time Spamlot opened on Broadway nearly 20 years ago. Perfectly cast and splendidly performed, with Josh Rhodes’ deceptively no-frills direction (and choreography) placing the irresistible goings-on front and center, the revival has lost none of the smart-dumb charm of either the original musical or its great source of inspiration – the beloved 1975 film Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

We found shockingly cheap tickets to see ‘Spamalot’ on Broadway

“Spamalot,” which just began previews at the St. James Theatre, has been only up for a few days in previews and tickets are already surprisingly affordable for such a high profile show.At the time of publication, our team found tickets going for as low as $40 before fees on Vivid Seats.Given that seats for other comedic musicals on the Great White Way like “Book of Mormon” and “Gutenberg” typically fetch higher prices, this very well might be the Holy Grail of deals.Especially when you consider the talented cast on display.At all shows, fans will be treated to an ensemble featuring “Saturday Night Live” alum Taran Killam, “Ugly Betty” star Michael Urie and upcoming “Wicked” film adaptation cast member Ethan Slater (who is romantically tied to Ariana Grande).Plus, so many more.So, if you want to slap coconuts together, see flying cows and have a great “knight” on the town, here’s everything you need to know about catching “Spamalot” on Broadway.All prices listed above are subject to fluctuation.After debuting on Halloween night, “Spamalot” has settled into a classic eight-show a week groove.However, just like their Monty Python forebears, the show eschews tradition.Rather than going dark on Monday, “Spamalot” performances run Monday through Saturday; there are no shows on Sunday (at least for the next two weeks).After that, things get a bit more conventional.Matinees are on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 2 p.m.; once Sunday shows come into play, they’ll start at 3 p.m.Want to find the show that makes the most sense for your wallet and schedule?Check out a complete calendar including all “Spamalot” at the St.

Editor’s Pick: ‘Guys and Dolls’ at The Kennedy Center

Guys and Dolls depicts life and love as a wild, scintillating game of chance.The quintessential Golden Age-era musical was built around Loesser’s immortal song standards, including “Adelaide’s Lament,” “Sit Down, You’re Rocking the Boat,” and “Luck Be a Lady.”The show was last seen on Broadway a dozen years ago, with a revival that was criticized for being somewhat dull and listless. It ultimately proved to be short-lived.More recently, the show became a direct pandemic casualty: Ford’s Theatre was forced to cancel all performances of its planned production a few days before previews were to start in mid-March of 2020.Fortunately, the Kennedy Center is now preparing its own staging of the show, as the opening production in the new season of Broadway Center Stage, the organization’s popular series of semi-staged, actor-centered productions.

Tony Awards 2020: Aaron Tveit is only nominee for Best Actor in a Musical

were announced Thursday by host James Monroe Iglehart, one category stood out: For Best Actor in a Musical, there was just a single nominee: Aaron Tveit, the star of “Moulin Rouge! The Musical.” That means Tveit will almost certainly win the award.Why almost?According to the official rules, “If the Tony Awards Nominating Committee has determined that if there is only one nominee in a category listed, such category shall be submitted to the Tony Voters which may, by the affirmative vote of 60 percent of the total ballots cast, grant an Award in that category.”So Tveit will still need to secure 60 percent of the vote to win.A Tony Award acting category has never, in the history of the ceremony, had just one nominee.
