According to http://www.playbill.com/news/article/93004.html
Alan Tudyk will be filling in for Hank Azaria in the musical Spamalot from June until November.

Cool, although the article doesn't mention Firefly or Serenity at all, which is kinda odd. ;)

Yay for Alan!

Although thanks to the title of this thread I've now got "The Camelot Song" running through my head nonstop. Thanks a lot.

When Alan was at the convention he mentioned he'd auditioned for that role (although I think he mistook Hank Azaria for Nathan Lane).

Sounds a perfect to me. Still, it's not like that I'll get to see it as they've made no mention of it coming to the UK. You know, it's not like we invented Monty Python or anything.

It also means, that he definitely won't be able to make the Starfury 'Serenity2' as it says he will work into late November :( . But can't say I ain't happy for the man. Nice job Alan!!

I went to New York for a week in April and mooted this as a possible show to go & see - sadly my friend is not into Monty Python at all so didn't go. But having said that, if I HAD been to see it, would probably now be feeling really annoyed at missing out on Alan!

All the best to him - he should be just great in it!

Now how do we get him to come to our next NYC Meet up?

Heck we had Johnathan Woodard at the North Eastern BBQ last weekend, so we can dream, right?

I am really pleased for Alan but I must admit to being a bit disappointed as well because this means he won't be able to attend Serenity2.

I know, I know. He hasn't even been mentioned yet as a possible guest but you can't blame me for hoping. It is such a nice guy, I would love to meet him again.

Hmmm, have to work on that selfish streak.

Good for Alan! Glad to see him w/ some work. Of course this means that he can't possibly make Dragon Con in Atlanta in September.

Tudyk's going to be great. I saw Spamalot in March and I couldn't stop laughing. But I'm also just slightly disturbed at the thought of him singing "his name is Lancelot" and if anyone else has seen it they'll know why.
