Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. First question should be rather easy. "The Song That Goes like This" is which show's song?

Answer: Monty Python's Spamalot

This is the show that gives these songs a name. It is sung between King Arthur (Tim Curry) and The Lady of the Lake (Sara Ramirez). "Spamalot" tells the story of King Arthur and his knights of the round table in search of their Grail, the thing inside them.

However serious this description may sound, it is actually a very comedic and satirical comedy. "Spamalot" was nominated for 12 Tonys and won 3 in 2005 for Best Director for Mike Nichols, Best Actress in a Musical for Sara Ramirez, and Best Musical. "Spamalot" opened January 9th, 2005.
2. I'll give you the lyric to the song, and you tell me which show it belongs to. "Nobody ever treated me kindly. Daddy left early, momma was poor."

Answer: Little Shop of Horrors

This song is from "Suddenly, Seymour" where Seymour assures Audrey that he will keep her safe. "Little Shop of Horrors" tells the tale of dorky flower shop janitor, Seymour, who has a passion for rare plants. One day while in China Town he finds a very rare and odd plant that, he later learns, lives off blood. Because the plant is giving the store such great publicity, Seymour is forced to give the plant what it wants, blood. Seymour finds himself in a world of trouble as his plant forces him to murder ones that are dear to him. "Little Shop of Horrors" was nominated for a Tony in the year 2004 for Best Actor in a Musical for Hunter Foster.
