Robert Koharchik does an incredible job with the set. He
recreates the Monty Python scenes from the French castle to the Camelot casino
perfectly. The high tower windows on either side of the stage worked particularly
well.
A few awards for the show:
Best Dance Moves: Sir Robin
Best Insults: The French
Best Hair: Sir Dennis Galahad
Best Use of Coconuts: Patsy
Best Jazz Hands: Sir Lancelot
Best Dramatic Performance: Tim the Enchanter

Just sit back and revel in the absurdity of the show. If
you’ve seen Monty Python skits or movies and hated them, then skip this one.
But if that’s the case, we might not be able to be friends anymore.

Game’s Afoot

Then it’s up to Gillette himself, as he assumes the persona of his beloved Holmes, to track down the killer before the next victim appears.
