http://www.thestage.co.uk/news/newss...-dream-will-do

Hi Dotty - came over for a look .

Yet another opportunity to say Congratulations Craig. well Done!! (from one of your 'virtual entourage' )

Mobile Joseph (with thanks to Trixie!) GO! GO! GO!

Woo Go Craig Go.....Well done and am thrilled for all your fans. Blimey my poor CC will be taking another bashing!!

Excellent news. Pity there isn't a theatre near me to go and see it.

Well done Craig!

Again i want to add my congratulations to Craig

I'm not surprised at all as i always thought that, after Lee, he was the most suited (and capable) Joseph.

I am pleasantly surprised that BK has shown the courage of his conviction in casting him. Its proved he wasn't just full of hot air during the show and thank goodness for that i say

I'll be keeping my eyes peeled to see if hes coming to a theatre near me.

It's official!! WAY TO GO CRAIG!!! Best of luck to you...now all you need to do is star in a USA touring production ...can you mention that to Bill?? We want to see Joseph too!!

Congratulations Craig! Great news!

Also would agree with bobbla, nice that BK has followed through with his support.

Aww excellent news for Craig!

Great for Craig. Chris Barton is joining the tour too as Benjamin and Joseph some performances.

Just to let you all know what Chris B said on his myspace
"hello everyone, just to let know i will be joining craig on the UK National Tour of JOSEPH..... Ill be playing benjemin and joseph at certain performances on the UK National Tour so make sure u all come and see us both, doing what we set out to do.Cnt wait for it, ITL BE A GREAT SHOW so make sure u all come and see us x We start on the 20th Aug in Bromley"

Congratulations Craig, that's great news.

beside the builder, craig was the least entertaining, most cringeworthy "joseph" on the show.

How he lasted longer than Anthony i'll never know!

Maybe because to some people he was entertaining, talented, good looking - oh and a really nice guy too.

I'm pleased to see all of them doing well whether i personally liked them or not during the show.

well done Craig. hes not one of my fav jospehs but could to see him doing well after the show.

Well I can tell you - he has a superb voice, is highly professional and Bill Kenwright has endorsed him by giving him the lead role in the UK Tour of Joseph. Not rocket science!

And the Craigettes won't hear a word against him, and if you check out his thread, you'll see that we don't have a bad word for any of the Josephs.

We wish them all well... particularly Lee tonight on his preview night

I totally disagree, and as a Lee fan I am really pleased for Craig and wish him the best of luck, he deserves it after the progress he made during the show, at the beginning maybe he was a bit cringeworthy, but by the time he left the show he was a MT performer and deserves his big break

Shame your TV doesn't have sound

rofl I am !

You are of course entitled to your favourites - but in my opinion Craig made the most impressive 'journey' through the series, and improved tremendously. He wasn't my favourite but I admired his determination to get better - and he did.

Good luck to him.

The builder was very good IMO. His charisma was second best to Ben's.

I'm happy for Craig, I myself wasn't the biggest fan of the sound of his voice but he seemed like a genuine nice guy, very likeable (sp?) and I wish him all the best.

I LOVED Craig!!!
(after Ben of course!)
i'm so happy for him! and he's comming to a theatre close to me! yay!!! Must get some friends together to go and see him
he was so lovely and had a really nice voice and he couldn't stop smiling bless him! aww
CONGRATULATIONS!

'The Builder' by the way has a name lol, and I am going to see Rob in the panto at Christmas!! yay!! can't wait

Craig deserves everything that's come his way since ADWD ended - the part of Joseph (the role that he went for in the first place) a loyal and dedicated fanbase that's growing daily and a GREAT future. Good on ya, McJoseph xxx

why do you all call him McJoseph?
please explain

Because he is Scottish so he was the "McJoseph" in the competition

I presume that Keith, Ben and Lewis were all unavailable or had been offered better jobs?

What is your point?
