Monty Python To Reunite Onstage
The five remaining members of British comedy group Monty Python are reuniting for a stage show, the BBC quoted one of them as saying on Tuesday amid buzz about a Thursday announcement from the troupe. The BBC said that Monthy Python member Terry Jones told it that he, John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry Gilliam and Michael Palin would announce a stage show. I wish I felt excited about this prospect; during the teenage formation of my twisted sensibility, Python provided lots to feed on. But I can’t help but think that this is just one more example of Geezers reuniting to squeeze a little more financial juice out of the brand. I can’t imagine coughing up big bucks for a ticket. But I wish them much success.
