Review: SPAMALOT at Starlight Theatre
by Alan Portner - Aug 5, 2026

The current national tour of Monty Python's Spamalot opened at Starlight Theatre on Tuesday evening August 4, for a weeklong residency.  This is my first exposure to this joyful send-up of all things musical theatre, motion pictures, vaudeville, and puppetry.  Can you say” inspired silliness?”  There are more joke lines embedded in Spamalot” than you can plausibly keep up with.
