What happens when you blend an orchestra, a choir, a Catholic mass, and British sketch comedy troupe Monty Python’s scenes & sketches from The Holy Grail, Life Of Brian and The Flying Circus TV show? The Revolution Orchestra creates a musical circus with original music by Zohar Sharon and Video art by Oren Gabay.
The show exposes The Pythons’ unique humor in a brand new stage production.
The performance is in English with (Hebrew and) English subtitles.
