AMERICAN IDOL - AIKEN'S FANS TO BE THE FOCUS OF A NEW MUSICAL

AIKEN'S FANS TO BE THE FOCUS OF A NEW MUSICAL

AMERICAN IDOL star CLAY AIKEN's fans have inspired a new Broadway musical. The 'Claymates' will be the focus of a new stageshow, called Idol: The Musical. The project is described as "a satirical musical comedy that focuses on the outrageous and delusional fan base of American Idol". Set in Ohio, the show follows a group of devoted high school kids obsessed by Idol and Aiken. To pass the time, the group gathers in a barn to 'worship' a shrine to Aiken, who represents their dreams of leaving home and becoming stars. Aiken was the runner-up in Season Two of American Idol.
