Witness for yourself the inspired lunacy of Monty Python and the Holy Grail like never before, when Edmond Town Hall Theatre hosts the return of the Sunday Cinema Series.

Introduced in 2014 and featuring classic films the Sunday series returns this month with a cult classic celebrating its 40th anniversary. On Sunday, June 28, attendees will be treated to a screening of Monty Python’s first full-length film, shown in its highest definition ever. Screenings will be at 4 and 7 pm. There will also be a screening of The Lost Animations, the new feature by Monty Python troupe member Terry Gilliam, as an extra treat.

All ages are welcome, and costumes — and coconuts, according to series creator Jen Rogers — are definitely encouraged.

The film was voted second best comedy movie of all time in the 2011 ABC-People magazine special, “Best in Film: The Greatest Movies of Our Time.”

It was named an OFTA Film Hall of Fame winner in 2014 by the Online Film & Television Association.

“I don’t think there is a single scene in this film that isn’t quotable; fans laugh all the way through it,” says Ms Rogers.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail is rated PG, and has a running time of 91 minutes.

Tickets for both shows are $2. All proceeds and donations will support the Edmond Town Hall Theater improvements.

The Sunday Cinema Series will return to Edmond Town Hall this weekend, featuring two screenings of Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Attendees will also enjoy a short film by Monty Python member Terry Gilliam as part of the June 28 special event.
