Aiken will be making his Broadway debut in the role originated on Broadway by David Hyde Pierce. His stint begins Jan. 18, 2008, and is scheduled to continue through May 4.
I saw the original cast in 2005, and I took my kids to see it just 3 weeks ago. I have no love of American Idol, and that casting choice scares me. Thanks for the warning.
It might work. But I’m not sanguine.
On the other hand, at least he’s not playing Lancelot.
