An Unmissable Night of Absurdity, Laughter, and Legendary Comedy with John Cleese! Date: Thursday, October 16, 2025 Venue: The Palace Theatre, Stamford, CT 🎟️ Get Tickets Now Comedy royalty is coming to Stamford—and he's bringing his coconuts! Get ready for an outrageous evening of nostalgia, wit, and laughter as the incomparable John Cleese takes the stage at The Palace Theatre to celebrate 50 years of Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The night kicks off with a screening of the iconic 1975 film that redefined comedy for generations. From the Black Knight to the Killer Rabbit, the Knights Who Say “Ni!” to the Holy Hand Grenade—every absurd moment is back on the big screen where it belongs. But the absurdity doesn’t end there. Following the film, John Cleese himself will grace the stage for a no-holds-barred conversation and audience Q&A. Expect tales from behind the scenes, plenty of dry British humor, and maybe even a few jabs at the French. It's Cleese at his most candid, curmudgeonly, and comical—assuming he remembers any of it, of course. 🎟️ Want the VIP Treatment? If hearing John Cleese isn’t enough, VIP ticket holders will also enjoy a special post-show photo opportunity with the comedy legend himself. It’s the perfect chance to capture a once-in-a-lifetime moment… assuming you're more important than the average peasant. This event isn’t just a show—it’s a comic pilgrimage. Whether you're a diehard Python fan or simply in need of a good laugh, this evening promises irreverent humor, timeless quotes, and a rare opportunity to bask in the brilliance of one of the world’s most influential comedians. So, round up your fellow knights, grab your (invisible) horses, and gallop your way to The Palace Theatre this fall.
