Clay Aiken on Broadway — Page 2

Those are really perfect roles for him I think broadwayguy2. Esp. Mark Cohen and Seymour. I visualized Clay as Mark the day I saw him audition on American Idol. He has said he hasn't really thought about doing theatre, but I think he should take the chance. Nice choices!

Clay has a Broadway voice in my opinion. I think he would make a kiss ass Mark in Rent. In a photo shoot of his, he struck a Mark-like pose, making a square with his hands in front of his face and was wearing a sweater, and he looked perfect. I could definitely imagine him in that role. I also would love to see him as Motel in Fiddler- he looks and could sing the part well. I would LOVE to see him as SEymour in Little Shop as well. He could be an awesome replacement. Than, he could costar with Ruben as Audrey!

I have said in another thread that he would be an interesting choice for Peter Pan and could really sing the hell out of Huck Finn in BIG RIVER.

Billy ______ the last thing we need is a kiss-ass Mark. And, as Greg Brady learned when they made him Johnny Bravo because he fit the suit, clothes do not an actor make.

---

I agree with Billy about Motel in Fiddler. He would be perfect. "Wonder of wonders. Miracle of miracles. God took a goofball by the hand."

---

Pippin. He would be ideal in Pippin.

I think he should sing someBilly Joel stuff, to bad he isnt a pianist, I think he would rock movin out. Another good role for the lad is prolly Schroeder in the revival version of YGMCB,

He would be a good American for Chess, and also he would rock my sox as Simon Zealots.

Clay would be a good Man#1 in Songs for a new world, he has it in him. And he is perfect for I love you youre perfect....

I've always figured that he could be awesome on any JRB music. I'd kill to hear him sing "The Old Red Hills of Home"
