Michael Kuchwara, AP Drama Critic.

Bravo, now we have a review that is from a respected drama critic and low and behold, I agree with him.

Here's a review I found. Color Me Surprised: Clay Aiken Is Fantastic in Spamalot If I'm being totally honest, I didn't go into today's matinee performance of Spamalot with the highest of expectations. Since it had been announced that Clay Aiken was joining the Broadway cast in the role of Sir Robin I've been dubious as to how good of a fit the American Idol runner-up and the Monty Python show would be. Well color me very pleasantly surprised -- Clay was great! His voice was, of course, fantas...

Thanks for the reviews xanafanadu2 and Clayford27. Glad you enjoyed it!:)

BroadwayBaby19, Thanks for your legitimate review of Spamalot. I think mine was legitimate also. After all, we saw it :)

I have a 3CD set with a complete libretto from 1990 that used 50 artists form the various companies in the major cities. If you can get this, it is spectacular. It's called Les Miserables, The Complete Symphonic Recording.

It wasn't sarcasm, but calling many of the Claymates here on their hypocrisy. You are right, however, about Clayford27 not being one of them. LePetiteFromage, What hypocrisy are you referring to? Their opinion differs from yours. That's their right as well as yours. I don't see very many Clayfans here. Just a handful who are interested only in reviews and sharing. The problem ones have been deleted several times and it has been quite civil here. Don't you think it's time to move on?

Sorry Marissa, I did miss it. Thanks for the review. I hope we'll see many more in the coming days ahead.

Thanks for your review Kelly2. Does anyone else have a review?

Having fans is always a good thing, but coming onto a messageboard to preach devotion to one person to a group that clearly doesn't want to hear it is a different story. I didn't notice any preaching. Coming to the Broadwayworld board is not imposing on you. There are many threads here to discuss whatever show or performer you want. If a group doesn't want to talk Clay,nobody is twisting their arms. They are free to ignore this thread. That would be the gracious thing to do. A couple friends ...

So far there are not only any REAL reviews of Clay, there are really almost no personal reviews (except from his fans, who are far too biased and crazy to be trusted). Hi Kevin, just curious as to what shows and performers you were a fan of when you came here? Do you buy memorabilia from any shows you see? Have you seen any shows more than once? I noticed a thread talking about stage door fanatics. This has been going on for years. Did you ever try to get a picture or an autograph from an act...

"Strange I have read quite a few recaps by people who went to the various shows over the weekend and not one mention was made anywhere by anyone about the stage being rushed" The info came from an usher, who would have no reason to lie. Perhaps the usher was referring to the photographers and press. They rushed the stage at Friday's performance during the final curtain call.

I'm interested in hearing how Hannah was. I did experience the crowd screaming when Clay exited the stage door after the matinee on Saturday. She was magnificent! She has a marvelous voice and stage presence. All the cast, including Clay Aiken, had me laughing as hard as the first time I saw it with DHP. They worked together to make the show a joy to attend.
