Concord's 'Spamalot' Nominated For 8 Awards

CONCORD, MA – Concord Carlisle Theater Company's production of "Spamalot" was a hit with critics and audiences alike this year, receiving eight nominations at the Massachusetts Educational Theatre Guild's Musical Theatre Awards.

The musical, written by "Monty Pyton" actor Eric Idle, was a 180-degree shift in tone from last year's production of "Phantom of the Opera." In an interview with the Concord Journal in early May, Concord-Carlisle High School theater studies teacher said this year's show allowed the actors "let loose" and show off their personalities.

And it paid off – the show's nominations include the highly coveted Best Overall Production. "Spamalot" was also nominated for Best Student Orchestra, Best Supporting Actress – Paige Walker, Best Lead Actor – Burke Hutchinson, Best Acting Ensemble, Best Dance Ensemble, Best Hair and Make Up Design and Best Props Design and Management.

The awards ceremony is June 24.

Congrats to all the nominees, and best of luck!
