Monty Pythong

Monty Py-Thong was an idea originally thought of by Chris Berube (director of the Berubians Theatre Troupe) and suggested to directors Bradley Schneider and Brett Schlank (great-grandson of director/producer Morris R. Schlank, one of the founders of Columbia Studios).

They developed the show and adapted classic Monty Python sketches for the stage. With an all-female cast, the production puts a whole new twist on the hilarious sketches of the past.

The show was first cast in November 2005. The following March 2006, Monty Py-Thong opened at The Next Stage Theatre in Hollywood, CA to mostly sellout crowds. By the end of the first run, Monty Py-Thong was the most successful production ever at the theatre. The show was extended, followed by a hiatus. By September, the production began its second run. It too was extended, this time at the Tres Stage Theatre. In October, the show was requested at the Westside Eclectic Theatre in Santa Monica, CA. After another hiatus, the show opened yet again at the Next Stage Theatre in February 2007, and has continued since.

A stable of actors act as the main troupe for the show, and different guest actors join in each run. The show continues to evolve and grow, as the cast continually changes and new sketches are brought to the stage.
