Michael Palin to Play God in Spamalot
Michael Palin has beaten off stiff competition from Hugh Bonneville, Professor Brian Cox, Brian May and Michael Ball, to appear as God on screen during each performance of Spamalot at the Edinburgh Playhouse from 16th – 21st March as part of Monty Python’s Spamalot UK Tour.
‘The Spamalot Charity Gods’ has been created to raise-a-lot of shillings for several charities supported by the actors who are playing God while the show is on tour this year, from January to June.
Michael Palin took time out of his busy schedule to film the part of God, which will be shown during each performance of Spamalot when the UK tour visits Edinburgh. His nominated charity is Action for Stammering Children.
The role of God features in Spamalot when King Arthur and the Knights of The Round Table are given their quest to find The Holy Grail.
