With slight apology to Mr. Collis, how about a review by a professional drama critic with 24 years + experience?

Wow, that’s Clay??? He’s….. handsome!
If you want a REAL theater review, read the one put out by the AP.
Saw Spamalot with Clay.. Clay was great! Laughed my bumm off so much we are going to another show. You would think the role was written for Clay.
did this “reviewer” even see the show!?
First off, let me say I’ve not followed Clay Aiken or his career. I heard of him of course, but have never seen him perform. My husband and I took a trip to NYC and decided to take in a few broadway shows. Hubby loves slap stick humor so we decided on Spamalot. We totally enjoyed it and completely were taken with Clay Aiken and his Sir Robin! My word that man is talented! He brought the house down several times. So wonder what play this reviewer was at?
Seems the NY critics vehemently disagree with EW’s assessment, just as they did with Fantasia. Can you guys just give up on your anti-AI-star bias for once & for all? Artists like Clay, Carrie, Kelly etc have proved themselves worthy of respect for their talents a thousand times over by now. Jeez, at least they can SING like nobody’s business, which is more than you can say for most of the 20-something recording stars out there.
