Claymates delusional? Never.

Some things are just a long time coming.

Playbill is reporting that Idol: The Musical, "based on the idol worship of former ‘American Idol’ contestant Clay Aiken," will debut Off-Broadway this summer.

According to a press release, the show is "a satirical musical comedy that focuses on the outrageous and delusional fan base of the hit television show."

In other words, it mocks the hell out of some Claymates.

The show will begin previews July 5, though no ticket information is currently available. As someone who is visiting New York in early August, I must find a way into this show.

Don't hold your breath for the touring production to swing by Memorial Auditorium. Raleigh just isn't ready for this. Something tells me this isn't what Clay's fans had in mind when they said he'd be perfect for Broadway.
