Odd,
but cool event alert: the folks who put on the (supposedly) wonderful, and Tony-winning Broadway show "Spamalot" are celebrating their first full year
with an event that is so Pythonesque, I just had to post about it. While I haven’t yet seen the production (I am not
too avid a theater-goer…although I DID see Dirty Rotten Scoundrels the other day…and liked it) the Spamalot crew
will seek to enter the Guinness Book/Web site of World Records with a performance of the world’s largest coconut orchestra. What will
they sing? Why the song: Always Look on the Bright Side of Life of course. (Wait, wasn’t that in Life of
Brian?! Oh well. No matter.) Here’s how it will work: apparently anyone can show up at the Shubert Alley, grab a pair
of coconuts and clap clop away.
The great coconut cacophony will take place after the Wednesday matinee of
"Spamalot," which ends at 4:20 p.m. Anyone in the audience automatically gets coconuts, and walk-ons can show
up as early as 3:45 p.m. This is a must-do. I may try to be there.
