GREENER GRASS IN SEPTEMBER -- Clay Aiken set to reprise Sir Robin in Broadway's "Spamalot." Graphic by cindilu2, photo by Joan Marcus.
Counting Down to 9/19!
SPAMTASTIC Reprise Nears
Since leaving Spamlot in May, jokes have just not been funny. Food has lost its taste. The grass is no longer green -- the sky no longer blue. And babies WON’T stop crying!! I’m so excited about coming back to the funniest show in the world! -- Clay Aiken
Fans are not alone in enthusiastically counting down to Clay Aiken's return to Spamalot on Broadway. Sir Robin is, too!
Most articles about the entertainer's highly anticipated reprise of the Sir Robin role in Monty Python's Spamalot quote the above paragraph. "Crying babies" references his newest real life role as father to Parker Foster Aiken, born on August 8.
CA fans have kept the Spamalot ticket line busy securing seats for the singer's second Broadway run Sept. 19 - Jan. 4. For a sneak preview/review, here is Yollie950's montage Clay Aiken - Spamalot Scrapbook:

Watching Clay Aiken in Spamalot is the funniest, most glorious time you could ever have on Broadway or anywhere else!!!! I can't wait to see him again!!!! Caro, thank you for this "teaser" montage with all the great clips -- it really whet my appetite to see Clay again in this amazing show!!!! Only 17 more days!!!!
CANNOT WAIT FOR SPAMALOT!!!
Clay Aiken is WONDERFUL as Brave Brave Sir Robin.
Wish I was going again *sigh* but I will live it through nightly recaps.
I am so ready for Spam II. Even though I can't go back to NYC this time, I love all the reports and pictures. Clay Aiken fans know how to feed the rest of us who can't get to the MAN in person.
Loved the photo and video interlude depicting Clay Aiken's Spamalot experience.

I am so excited to be going to see Clay Aiken in Spamalot in a little over two weeks. Thanks for the marvelous vids and pics and articles all gathered together.
A real fun blog, Caro. Spamalot is lucky Clay Aiken is on their stage. It shows from the wonderful reviews!
I'm looking forward to the super nightly recaps :)
Thank you for the videos and pictures. Clay is perfect as Sir Robin. Can't wait to see him on Broadway!
OK, you sold me. I'm going to NYC on business anyway. Might as well see the funniest show on Broadway.
Loved the Clay Aiken Spamalot montages. I hope everyone who didn't get to Spamalot the first time around will have an opportunity to go this time.
Spamalot is one of the best shows on Broadway and certainly the funniest! Clay Aiken's role has many fun parts which Clay does so well. I love his facial expressions in this show, he is very expressive. And he CAN dance!
Hope Clay Aiken does the stage door again, but if he continues to see the same faces at the front of the barricades he will probably back off the stage door appearances. Here's a tip--he would like to see some different people up front every night so all fans have a chance.
God! He's gorgeous and so talented. Does anyone else hyperventilate when he slaps his behind?
Clay Aiken is marvelous in Spamalot. He's the best Sir Robin I've ever seen.
Clay Aiken is excellent in his Spamalot roles! I wish I could go back!
I'm so happy I got to see Spamalot last March. Wish I could go again, but not possible. I can't wait to hear details from people who are attending Clay Aiken's return to Broadway. How exciting!
Caro,
You are really building up the Spam excitement here huh? Oh...never mind, I'll just be contented with clacks and recaps from our beloved Claymates. Thanks for this fun and memorable blog.
Hugs,

I saw Clay in "Spamalot" last February & again; he was fabulous!
