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:
