Spamalot shut out

It was a busy weekend for me, and I promise I'll write about it, and give my analysis of this week's Grease, but I'm stuck with a surprise meeting this morning that is demanding most of my time, so all that will come a little bit later. I did want to point out quickly, that Spamalot was fortunately shut out of last night's Olivier Awards. The big winner was Sunday in the Park with George. A list of all the winners can be seen here. I was surprised that Caroline or Change won the best new musical award, beating out both Avenue Q and Spamalot, but the Brits definitely have very different taste. On a related note, I'll be in London for one day later this year, and I hope to see Billy Elliot. Tickets are on sale through about 2 weeks before I'll be there. Hopefully it will get extended and as soon as a new block of tix go on sale I can get a pair.
