The Guild is thrilled to co-produce a large-scale musical on the Yukon Arts Centre stage. It has been over a decade since the Guild has collaborated with the YAC to bring local audiences a taste of Broadway on the luxuriously big stage of the Arts Centre. A Broadway smash hit and winner of three Tony® awards, Monty Python’s comic masterpiece, Spamalot, is known for its widespread appeal and brilliantly hilarious script. See it on the Yukon Arts Centre stage in March 2025!
Newcomers and veterans of the stage are welcome! There is an honorarium for performers.
Email guildproducer@gmail.com to book an audition or for more info.
Audition slots will be available:
Auditions will consist of a chat with the directors, performing a song (of your choice, please bring your own backing track), and reading a scene from the script (which we will send you in advance).
Rehearsals begin January 7th and run through March 25th. Three evenings (between Tuesday and Friday) per week plus one weekend day will generally be required of all performers for the first month of rehearsals.
In February and March, additional time will be required - not all performers will be called for all rehearsals, however rehearsing Tuesday through Friday evenings as well as time during weekend days will be necessary. Performances will run March 25th through 30th.
The King of England who sets out on a quest to form the Knights of the Roundtable and find the Holy Grail. Great humor. Good singer.
A Knight of the Roundtable. Ironically called 'Sir Robin the Brave,' though he couldn't be more cowardly. Joins the Knights for the singing and dancing. Also plays GUARD 1 and BROTHER MAYNARD, a long-winded monk.
A Knight of the Roundtable. He is fearless to a bloody fault, but through a twist of fate, does discover his 'softer side.' This actor MUST be great with character voices and accents, as he also plays THE FRENCH TAUNTER, an arrogant, condescending, over-the-top Frenchman, the KNIGHT OF NI, an absurd, cartoonish leader of a peculiar group of Knights, and TIM THE ENCHANTER, a ghostly being with a Scottish accent.
King Arthur's horse and servant. Underappreciated but always longing for King Arthur's approval. Good, funny, physical mover with some tap dancing. Also plays MAYOR, a jolly red-faced man who advertises the merits of his home town, and the drunken, useless GUARD 2.
A Knight of the Roundtable. Begins as Dennis, a lower class 'mud gatherer' who becomes knighted and transforms into the dashing Sir Galahad. Also plays PRINCE HERBERT'S FATHER, a wealthy, brutish Yorkshireman at odds with his sensitive son, THE BLACK KNIGHT who is always ready to duel despite multiple injuries. Strong baritenor singing required.
A Knight of the Roundtable. An inept scholar. Also plays DENNIS GALAHAD'S MOTHER, a shrill peasant woman, and CONCORDE, Sir Lancelot's horse. No solo singing.
A Diva. Strong, beautiful, possesses mystical powers. The leading lady of the show. Great singing voice is essential, as she must be able to sing effortlessly in many styles and vocal registers. Especially seeking actresses of all races for this role.
A Knight of the Roundtable. An inept scholar. Also plays DENNIS GALAHAD'S MOTHER, a shrill peasant woman, and CONCORDE, Sir Lancelot's horse. No solo singing.

The Guild supports a welcoming environment for all artists and is committed to inclusive casting, including casting across gender identities, and ethnic backgrounds.
Lovingly ripped off from the classic film Monty Python’s classic film the Holy Grail, Monty Python’s Spamalot retells the legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table. Featuring killer rabbits, coconuts, and flying cows, this outrageous and irreverently entertaining story of King Arthur and the Lady of the Lake’s search for the Holy Grail will delight audiences and remind them to “always look on the bright side of life.”
I’m thrilled to be directing once again for the Guild, and to be immersing myself in the comedy of Monty Python that has always been special to me. Spamalot is a gift of a show, full of opportunities to play different styles of comedy, and getting to do so on the Yukon Arts Centre stage means that there is no ceiling to how BIG we can play with this show.
As a lifelong Monty Python fan, I’m thrilled with this opportunity to co-direct Spamalot with Reid Vanier. The goal with this production is to have as much fun making it as we do performing it. So come on out and play!
