TERRY GILLIAM comes to the Bacon Theatre to mark the 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL during the CHELTENHAM INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL!

 

An audience with Terry Gilliam — plus the most gloriously silly film ever made. 

Legendary Python, Terry Gilliam, comes to Cheltenham for a once-in-a-lifetime evening celebrating Monty Python and the Holy Grail. As co-director, animator, and on-screen mischief-maker, Gilliam will take us behind the scenes of this cult comedy masterpiece — sharing outrageous stories, rare insights, and the creative chaos that forged one of the funniest films of all time.

Before Terry shares his stories, settle in for the full big-screen experience: a deliriously daft reimagining of the Arthurian legend where gallant knights gallop without horses, killer rabbits terrorise the countryside, and the Knights Who Say “Ni!” guard the way with ridiculous menace. 

Shot on a shoestring budget but brimming with invention, it’s a surreal, anarchic joy from start to finish. Whether you’re a lifelong fan or a first-time grail seeker, this is Python at their silliest, sharpest, and most enduring — made even more special by having one of its creators in the room.
