 Billy Elliot on B'way -- AMAZING, Nov 15, 2008 |
| reviewer: Kevin from Fort Lauderdale, FL USA - See all reviews by Kevin |
| I LOVED this show -- as did the audience the night I saw it. You cannot help but cheer for Billy and his quest to pursue his newfound dream of becoming a dancer. The children in the cast are amazingly talented -- just superb. The woman lead who plays Mrs. Wilkinson (the ballet teacher) is phenomenal. Actually - everyone in the cast is just excellent, and the music by Elton John will have you riveted. The staging was unique and quite interesting -- I loved the way they tied the dancing into the miners' strike and the scenery flows effortlessly into and out of the stage keeping the action and flow of the story contstantly moving forward. This is a show with a message about celebrating your own individuality -- and you will leave cheering and smiling. A must see!! __________________ |

 Not as good as the movie, Apr 13, 2009 |
| reviewer: LJ from NYC - See all reviews by LJ |
| If you saw the movie first like I did, be prepared to be disappointed by the live show. There's no way they can replicate the dancing in the movie to a live show. |

Bring a box of tissues, Oct 21, 2009 |
| reviewer: Anna from Florida, USA - See all reviews by Anna |
| It was wonderful! You don't notice the accents after a while-- the story and the emotion grip you and you become totally immersed in the story and the lives of the characters. It is powerful, like Les Miz, and the sets are reminiscent of it as well. The finale is light in nature but culminates a memorable event! A must see! |
