Monty Python was a British surreal comedy group that created Monty Python's Flying Circus, an influential British television comedy sketch show. With the success of the show, The Pythons became a phenomenon that included touring stage shows, films, albums, books, and a stage musical, and that eventually granted members individual stardom.
