ERIC IDLE

Monty Python Live (Mostly): One Down, Five To Go: The 02 Arena, London, 2014

One of the members of the iconic Monty Python team (along with John Cleese, Michael Palin, Terry Jones, Terry Gilliam), Eric Idle directed and starred in Monty Python Live (Mostly): One Down, Five To Go at the O2 Arena, London which I was lucky to see in 2014.

The show included classic routines live on stage and screen as well as new material.  Idle was the most lively of the group performing classic songs on stage including Always Look On The Bright Side of Life as well as sketches such as Nudge Nudge Wink Wink.  The show did not look dated at all even although the material was nearly forty years old and the packed crowd knew every word and had a great time.
