Alasdair says rehearsals are going great and that everyone in the show is having fun, laughing and enjoying it.
"It's really funny so we're always laughing and it's very fast-paced. With a small cast, some of them play up to four roles."
He says there's also a lot of role reversals as that used to be done in Monty Python too.
He is a member of the cast himself, playing Sir Dennis Galahad.
"I grew up watching Monty Python and laughing my head off, it's so funny and random.
"Being able to put on this show is amazing. I think it's so funny and I think that people will come along and laugh their heads off too.
"It's a special show for me because I've always loved Monty Python. It's not for everyone, but I'm sure people who are new to Monty Python will still laugh and see references that they get."
Alasdair says it's been a lot of fun working on the show.
"The cast are putting their all into it, and hopefully the audience will feel like they are in the Middle Ages with the set.
"It's been a long rehearsal time, but the songs and script are funny so we laugh and we know that people who come along will have a great time."
He encourages people to come along for a night of fun theatre - "There's projections, audience involvement and lots of surprises".
