Theater review: ‘Spamalot’ is the Holy Grail of Python productions 
I was excited to have the opportunity to see the touring company production of “Spamlot” at the DECC on Tuesday night, because I still have vivid memories of being one of five people (three people) crammed into the front seats of a small car in the front row of a drive-in theatre to see “Monty Python and the Holy Grail,” and getting hysterical at the opening sub-titles in faux-Swedish musing on the “majestik moose.”

What are you reading? "Unfamiliar Fishes" by Sarah Vowell
I first saw Sarah Vowell on “Late Night with David Letterman.” Her Goth look, nasal voice and sarcastic attitude did not deter me from buying her latest book at the time, “Assassination Vacation.”

What are you reading? "The Serve: How the World Became Modern" by Stephen Greenblatt
Stephen Greenblatt’s book is a fascinating account of the rediscovery of an ancient manuscript and of the subsequent impact of that manuscript on Western history.

Opening night of the Minnesota Ballet’s production of “The Nutcracker” is the most magical night of the year when it comes to performing arts in the Twin Ports. Last night I watched a wide-eyed little girl named Liina, already dressed in a lovely holiday gown, be decked out in a royal sash and tiara as a Nutcracker princess.
