Wow, not only is the black knight voice actor really good, but it’s a really creative way of depicting the black knight scene, and it’s admirable how they worked in an amputee in a perfect way.
I like to imagine in the drama class or whatever this was done in, teacher said “who’s gonna be the black knight” then the entire class slowly turns their heads to the amputee
The best thing about a Monty Python stage play is that if anything goes wrong, it just fits and makes the show funnier. And oh boy so many things can go wrong in a stage play
I died when he said tis but a scratch, I died even more when he said it’s but a flesh wound, and I’m 20 feet deep into my grave when the man came around asking for arms
What’s even more remarkable is that the “arms for the poor” wasn’t even in the original film and was just used to pick up the props, and yet it perfectly fits in as if it was. That’s just shows the genius behind Monty Python. Edit: I should clarify that my comment was meant to show how the nature of Monty python’s comedy could make such moments of improvisation work so well due to the ridiculous context. I should however, credit those who were behind this production and staying true to the source material as well, well done to those students as well!
I would say this is more of a showcase of talent from the (students?) who edited the script to be a school play, and shows a clear understanding of Monty Pythons humour.
who ever the king is needs way more public recognition because that is one dedicated high school actor. He didn't sound rehearsed or anything, just purely good acting. Felt like he could be part of the monty python movie

Always fun to have a reminder that I'm constantly being spied on. Quoted this earlier with my brother and how convenient that its suddenly recommended...
See, who says you can't be an actor without limbs? First we had dwarven actors, now we have limbless ones. It's the first time an actor being legless wasn't a scandal! XD
@@micah5918 Well, unless there's legless actors I don't know of, which is possible cos I don't follow Hollywood much, I was just making wordplay. Being "legless" means drunk, which often gets actors in trouble with the media, hence the pun. :P
This is the best example that shows that everyone can do theatre. I wish I could do someday a Monty Python play, I love doing comedy and doing that play would be the peak of my "theatre career", because even if it is just a hobby, it means a lot for me, a teenager with asperger.

"Arms for the poor" is an amazing line
Arms for a leper actually. it was used in their next movie, Life of Brian, and it fits brilliantly in this sketch.
it would be funnier in german where "Arme" is a word for multiple poor people or for multiple arms. You could say "Arme für Arme"

Yea I like the part where he’s just like “tis just a flesh wound.” “A FLESH WOUND!? YOUR ARMS OFF” I think they sold it on that

Better than most comedies because of this in fact
I'm so happy this disabled kid got to be a part of the play. He's absolutely crushing it up there.
And the guy playing King Arthur is really good too.
