Comedian Joe Pasquale makes his West End Musical debut when he takes over the role of King Arthur in Monty Python's Spamalot, at The Playhouse Theatre from 17th June 2013 for a six week run.

Joe Pasquale has appeared on stage in six Royal Variety Performances, and in the touring productions of Mel Brooks' 'The Producers', 'The Wizard of Oz' and Tom Stoppard's 'Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead'. His numerous live stand up shows included the 1996 tour 'Live and Squeaky'. On screen Joe Pasquale has voiced characters for the Hollywood films 'Garfield: A Tale of Two Kitties' and 'Horton Hears A Who!' while his TV roles have included hosting ITV1's 'The Price Is Right' and 'An Audience With Joe Pasquale', as well as guest presenting Channel 4's 'The Paul O'Grady Show'. Most famously, Joe won the 2004 series of 'I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here' and also made it to round six of ITV1's 'Dancing on Ice' in early 2013.

Monty Python's Spamalot, which returned to the West End, opening at the Playhouse Theatre, on 20 Nov 2012, following previews 14 Nov 2012, is currently taking bookings to 2 Nov 2013.

Monty Python's Spamalot is "lovingly ripped off from Monty Python and the Holy Grail." Book by Eric Idle, score by Eric Idle and John Du Prez.

"Spamalot tells the legendary tale of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table and features a bevy (or possibly a brace) of beautiful show girls, witch burnings (cancelled due to health and safety) not to mention cows, killer rabbits and French people. The show features fantastic tunes more magical than a Camelot convention, including He Is Not Dead Yet, Knights of the Round Table, Find Your Grail and of course the Nation's Favourite Comedy Song (Reader's Digest Poll 2010 - before it went bust) Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life."
