First Blog...Ever

Hello all and welcome to my blogging of my musical 'Spermalot'...(yes, Spermalot). Having said the name of the musical, I would like to say first off that this particular musical is in no way, shape, or form a spoof of the broadway musical 'Monty Python's Spamalot.' This is the first thing people seem to ask about it. This musical was created by a few locals in the Des Moines area. If there is any other musical that people may think of while viewing Spermalot, it would most likely be Broadway's 'Avenue Q.' This is due to the fact that the main characters of the musical (which are individual sperm) are hand puppets.

To give a little synopsis, the musical follows King Arthur of Spermatagonia and his sperm knights on their quest for the Holy Grail (aka the Holy Egg). Joining Arthur on his quest are fellow sperm knights Sperm Lancelot the Brave, Sperm Beefeater the Inebriated, Sperm Lionel the Queer, and Sperm Expendable. Upon their journey to the egg, they encounter countless obstacles and run into a few lively characters along the way.
