WHAT A BARGAIN!
TWO JOES FOR
THE PRICE OF ONE!
The Spamalot
UK Tour
2015
Sunderland Empire
Monday 18th
– Saturday 23rd May 2015
Having travelled the length and breadth of the
country since January in search of The Holy Grail, Joe Pasquale now continues
his hilarious quest at theatres across the land with the help of his actor son
Joe Tracini (handy that he's also called Joe, so that probably helps cut down
on sign writing costs at least).

As one of the most talented coconut bangers this
country is likely to ever see, Joe Tracini takes over manservant duties in the
role of Patsy from 11th May when the Spamalot 2015 UK tour arrives in
Liverpool. Joe is thrilled to join his father Joe on stage in the hugely
popular comedy jaunt, which is (loosely) based on the classic film, Monty
Python And The Holy Grail.

Joe Tracini says: "When I was little, I had
three dreams for when I grew up to be in a musical, to work with my Dad, and to
bang two halves of a coconut together on a nightly basis. Playing Patsy in
Spamalot is making all of them come true at once. I'm honoured that I'm being
trusted with the part, to sing the classic song 'Always Look On The Bright Side
Of Life,' and to be joining such a brilliant company. Come and see us please,
it's funnier if you're there."
Best known for his roles as Dennis Savage in Channel
4's Hollyoaks and as DK in BBC
Three's Coming of Age, Joe Tracini studied at the world-famous Italia Conti
Academy of Arts in London before landing his first role in My Spy Family on
Cartoon Network's sister channel, Boomerang.
He was nominated for three Inside Soap Awards and a British Soap Award
during his time in Hollyoaks. He's also
appeared in BBC Three's Two Pints Of Lager And A Packet Of Crisps.
As well as acting, Joe Tracini is an accomplished magician, having won the
title 'British Junior Magical Champion' in 2003 and went on to become a member
of The Magic Circle. Spamalot tells the legendary tale of King Arthur and the
Knights of the Round Table and features a bevy (or possibly a brace) of
beautiful show girls, witch burnings (cancelled due to health and safety) not
to mention cows, killer rabbits and French people. The show features fantastic
tunes more magical than a Camelot convention, including He Is Not Dead Yet,
Knights of the Round Table, Find Your Grail and of course the Nation's
Favourite Comedy Song (Reader's Digest Poll 2010 - before it went bust, closed
down and then came back again), Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life.

The latest tour, directed by Christopher Luscombe,
follows hot on the heels of the can't-believe-how-successful-it-was-with-the-first-show-selling-out-in-40-seconds
Monty Python Reunion at The O2 and Eric Idle's acclaimed performance of 'Always
Look On The Bright Side of Life' at the 2012 Olympic Closing Ceremony - the
world sang along, and Spamalot audiences get the opportunity to do so too!
During the West End run, there were 21 onstage moustache incidents,
three suspected cases of swine flu (French pigs!), three outbreak of nits and
92 pairs of coconuts used.
'Spamalot proves that the British sense of humour
is alive and well. In the depressing darkness of January, this show is a beacon
of light.' 5 stars Tim Walker, The Sunday Telegraph
"Just give way to your inner child and laugh a
lot!" - The Times
"Spamalot is really great. If you haven't seen
it, go, GO" - Chris Tarrant, BBC Radio 2 Produced by Howard Panter for The
Ambassador Theatre Group
