Monty Python star has reinvented his play The Weekend as musical theatre
Theatres are about to embark on a new “golden age” thanks to the combination of freshly enthused audiences and a drive for new adventurous work, according to Michael Palin.
Ahead of the opening of a new opera based on a play by Palin, inspired by his grumpy father, the former Monty Python star told the Observer he is happy to be part of a national return to the theatre.
