Malta will be joining fans across the globe as the historic The Last Night of the Monty Python show is screened at local cinemas through Picturehouse Entertainment.

Fans are being given a chance to say farewell to the Pythons on this last night during a live show in London directed by Aubrey Powell and produced by Fiz Oliver.

Monty Python hold a place among the world’s finest ever comedians, influencing a generation and revolutionising comedy on their way to greatness.

At a combined age of just 357, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin will once again take to the stage and perform some of Monty Python’s greatest hits with modern, topical, Pythonesque twists.

“Thanks to the wonderful invention of moving pictures, The Last Night of Monty Python is coming to a cinema near you. Join the crowd live from London’s O2 in a final weepy, hilarious farewell, ”said the Pythons.

Monty Python first hit our screens with the Flying Circus, which saw 45 episodes broadcast over four BBC series between 1969 and 1974. The Pythons were an instant success and became the face of British comedy. They went on to achieve overwhelming international acclaim with the huge success of films such as Monty Python and the Holy Grail in 1975, Life of Brian in 1979 and their final film, The Meaning of Life, in 1983.

The Last Night of the Monty Python will be broadcast on July 20 at The Eden Cinemas, St Julian’s and at St James, Valletta.
