As Smart as it is Silly, “Spamalot” Sure to Receive Roaring Laughs
Once in every show
Karla Shook, as the Lady of the Lake, is seen in the foreground wielding the Holy Grail, while King Arthur, played by Robert Anthony Jones, motions towards her in the Little Theatre's final production of the 2013 season, "Spamalot."
There comes a song like this
It starts off soft and low
And ends up with a kiss
Oh where is the song
That goes like this?
Where is it? Where? Where?
A sentimental song
That casts a magic spell
They all will hum along —
We’ll overact like hell —
For this is the song that goes like this
Yes it is! Yes it is!
— “The Song That Goes Like This” from “Spamalot”

It’s the rare musical comedy that can take you from farce to a treatise on political organization with the speed of a galloping coconut. And this is the show that goes like that.
