Spamalot
Spamalot (also known as Monty Python's Spamalot: A Musical (Lovingly) Ripped Off from the Motion Picture Monty Python and the Holy Grail) is a musical with music by John Du Prez and Eric Idle, and lyrics and a book by Idle. Based on the 1975 film Monty Python and the Holy Grail, the musical offers a highly irreverent parody of Arthurian legend, with the title being a portmanteau of Spam and Camelot.
The 39 Steps
The 39 Steps is a parody play adapted from the 1935 film by Alfred Hitchcock, which is itself adapted from the 1915 novel by John Buchan. The original concept and production of a four-actor version of the story was written by Simon Corble and Nobby Dimon, and premiered in 1996. Patrick Barlow rewrote this adaptation in 2005.
Seussical
Seussical, sometimes Seussical the Musical, is a musical with lyrics by Lynn Ahrens, music by Stephen Flaherty, and a story co-written by both. It is based on the works of Dr. Seuss, with most of its plot drawing from Horton Hears a Who!, Gertrude McFuzz, and Horton Hatches the Egg.
John Proctor is the Villain
John Proctor Is the Villain is a stage play written by American playwright Kimberly Belflower. It is a revisionist take on the classic American play The Crucible by Arthur Miller, centering on a group of modern-day high school students and their interpretation of the historical events the play is based on.
Nunsense
Nunsense is habit-forming! This riotous show is a fundraiser put on by the Little Sisters of Hoboken to raise money to bury sisters accidently poisoned by the convent cook, Sister Julia (Child of God). Updated with new jokes, additional lyrics, two new arrangements, and a brand new song, this madcap musical was recorded for television starring Rue McClanahan as the Mother Superior.
