A rare combination of unprecedented originality and blinding talent, The Drowsy Chaperone boldly addresses a great unspoken desire in all of our hearts: to be entertained. If you’ve ever sat in a dark theatre and thought, “Dear Lord in heaven, please let it be good,” this is the show for you! It all begins when a die-hard musical theater fan plays his favorite cast album on his turntable, and the musical literally bursts to life in his living room, telling the rambunctious tale of a brazen Broadway starlet trying to find, and keep, her true love.

Starring in the show as a cast member will be Raleigh's own Clay Aiken as "Man in Chair" alongside another Raleigh native, Beth Leavel, reprising her TONY Award-Winning role as "The Chaperone."

Tickets are on sale at the venue now; for more information please visit:

Dear OFC,

Clay's FIFTH live video chat exclusively for Official Fan Club members will be held on Tuesday, January 22nd, at 8:30pm EST. All of the action will happen on the Chat page. We encourage you to visit that page and test out the chat in advance to make sure everything is in working order before January 22nd.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: We are no longer using Parachat due to concerns with Java security. The new chat room uses flash, so just make sure you have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. The move is an upgrade as well, to make sure we don't have any additional technical difficulties. We have opted for the Livestream chat widget, which is very easy to use. You just log in to your OFC account, go to the Chat page, and you will be prompted to create a nickname (which you can change at any time) after you send your first chat message in the window. If you'd like, you can choose a nickname that is the same as your OFC account display name. You don't need to worry about creating a Livestream account.

As with the previous chats, we'll be collecting questions ahead of time for Clay to answer during the chat. Visit this campaign in the Campaigns section of the site to submit your questions for Clay! You will also be able to ask him questions directly during the actual chat on January 22nd.

You must be an Official Fan Club member to view and participate in the chat. If you're not yet, please join the OFC now!

For those of you who cannot make it to the chat this time around, we will be recording it again so that you can watch it at a later time. :)

Any questions or problems viewing the chat room? We're here to help. Customer Support is avaialble at support.groundctrl.com or at 877-GND-CTRL Monday - Friday between the hours of 9am and 5pm PT.

See you in the chat!

-Team Clay
