The auditions for the musical, which will be directed by Jeff Hockley and staged in October, started on Friday night and finished yesterday at Scotch Oakburn College.
The musical comedy is an adaption of the 1975 film Monty Python and the Holy Grail and includes a song from Life of Brian .
Launceston actress Kellie Cutler was one of many people to audition.
``The show's a comedy which really appeals to me,'' she said.
``You've got to give these things a go . . . and as a mother and a wife, I still think it's important that you do something for yourself.''
Cutler caught the theatre bug after being part of LMS's production of Annie last October and said she would love to be part of Spamalot .
Successful auditionees will spend three months rehearsing the show before they move into the Princess Theatre in mid-October.
It will open on October 22 and run until October 26.
