I saw him in Priscilla last night and I have to say go and see this show this week before Jason Donovan gets back. He is superb. He is the character from the second he walks on stage. He looks nothing like the akwardness Jason has, he is relaxed in the part, cagey and uncomfortable when he is suppose to be (like talking about his wife) but not in every scene like Jason.
He is touching as the struggling father, has a strong voive and is SO much more pleasent to watch getting changed at the beginning than it is to watch Jason.
It is such a pity the show needs an underperforming "star" to sell it. They should at least allow Craig to ply as alternate so people have the option to see him as he is totally worth it. The 3 of them all perform so well together

I've also seen Craig Ryder in the role and thought he was amazing! Great voice, good acting and worked well with Oliver and Tony.

I've seen the show many times now (I love it just as much as ever) and have seen Craig as Tick/Mitzi twice. I think he is fantastic. A great singer and actor, he's wonderful to watch and listen to, and a very nice guy. I'm going to miss him in the role, but look forward to when he'll next be playing him at the end of October.
