Monty Python’s Spamalot is about to gallop into Melbourne, and Sunday Arts Mag catches producer/director Drew Anthony and emerging WAAPA graduate Jesse Vasiliadas just days before preview. Drew Anthony Creative brings the Tony Award‑winning musical comedy to the historic Athenaeum Theatre on Collins Street, with the Melbourne season running from 16 September to 11 October 2026. Jesse Vasiliadas steps into the role of Sir Lancelot, part of a riotous retelling of King Arthur’s quest that blends tap‑dancing knights, big Broadway vocals and Monty Python’s anarchic humour. Together, Drew and Jesse talk about restoring Spamalot to Australian stages, the joy of revisiting iconic Python moments, and the thrill of opening in one of Melbourne’s great theatre rooms.
