Now in its fifth season, this year’s lineup of hilarious Off-Broadway hits opens November 5-17 with the North American tour of Spamilton: An American Parody, making its Kansas City premiere. Tickets are on sale now. Created by Gerard Alessandrini, the comic mastermind behind the long-running hit Forbidden Broadway, which played the 2017-18 Starlight Indoors series, Spamilton: An American Parody is a side-splitting new musical parody based on a blockbuster hit of a similar name. After numerous extensions of its run in New York, this hilarious production made a splash in Chicago, Los Angeles and London. Now, Spamilton: An American Parody brings a singing, dancing and comedy revolution to Kansas City. “Spamilton pays a hilarious tribute to its inspiration and is smart, sharp and funny to its core— everything you’d want and more from a spoof of Broadway’s most popular musical,” Caroline Gibel, director of indoor programming at Starlight, said. “The best part is, you don’t have to have seen Hamilton to enjoy Spamilton.

Giorno dopo giorno in loro sono cresciute l’esperienza e la passione per l’arte della pasta, che è stata sapientemente trasferita nei loro prodotti. Oggi la qualità e la genuinità degli antichi sapori è conservata dalle figlie e dai nipoti che rappresentano ormai la terza generazione dedita alla produzione della pasta. The handicraft pasta factory Fratini was established in 1950 by Mr. Libio Fratini who, with the precious cooperation of his wife, opened the very first fresh pasta shop in the Umbria Region. Today the quality and the genuinity of the ancient flavours is carried out by Libio Fratini’s daughters and grandsons who represent the third generation of pasta making. The quality of Pasta Fratini’s products is to be found in the accurate choice of the ingedients which are transformed in the finished product in an updated laboratory where the main policy is the respect of the public health regulations. Over the years, experience and fantasy had enanched the range of products in order to satisfy the demands of the customers who have alaways been identifying “Pasta Fratini” as a family who has got passion in the pasta making. Respecting the traditional tecniques of the pasta making “Pasta Fratini” uses the lamination tecnique which consists in having two cylinders contrasting each other in order to make the pasta thinner without getting it hot.
