I saw Raitt in Zorba, On A Clear Day, Music Man, Kismet and a self-directed 25th anniversary tour of Carousel. With a good strong director he was decent as an actor, but his self-directed Billy was embarrassing, esp. in the Soliloquy. He physically acted out everything possible - wrestle, dive, swim, sissy, etc., it was not pretty. But dear God, could that man sing!

The reviews I've seen of him as Zorbá said things like, "The casting sounds ridiculous but he's surprisingly good in the role.."
