What do you get in a mash-up of “Camelot” and “Monty Python and the Holy Grail?”

“Spamalot,” the musical comedy that is an irreverent parody of the legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table.

The national tour of “Spamalot” stops at the Tivoli Theatre for three evening performances Tuesday-Thursday, April 16-18.

This musical unabashedly proclaims it is “lovingly ripped off from the 1975 film ‘Monty Python and the Holy Grail'” with a book by Eric Idle and music and lyrics by the Grammy-winning team of Idle and John Du Prez.
