BEST MUSICAL I HAVE SEEN

Billy Elliot is one of the most amazing plays in my opinion. At first, I did not want to see this musical because I expected the worst. Boy was I wrong! This play is a must-see and I really want to see it before it leaves. There was comedy, dancing(quite amazing for an 11 year old), singing, a few shed tears, and the entire audience wanted to get up. I cannot stress how amazing it was. You Must see it. The play did have some bed language, a few f bombs, so probably children 10 and up. Overall it was an amazing experience that should not be missed. ALso, there was good food around. Go see it!!!!! :)

SUPER SHOW BUT UNCOMFORTABLE SEATS IN THE IMPERIAL

We saw the show on Sept.29, 2009 with Kiril Kulish as Billy. Amazing dancing and a show to remember. Only negative thing is the seating. Rows are so close together that I could not sit. Had to sit in isle-seat and put legs to the side. Took part of the joy away as it was uncomfortable. I am only 1.96 mtr (6'5") but seems you must cope with that as part of the charm of an old theatre as there are no alternatives. I had expected a bit more consideration from the theatre for a ticket of USD140,=. Be aware all you tall people, the Imperial Theatre only sits people under 6'. Better see this show in a different theatre.

LATE ARRIVALS

We went to see this show on Sat 14 May and were amazed at the number of late arrivals to this show which spoiled our enjoyment. Some as late as 30minutes and still allowed to take their seats. Would not happen here!! The girl in front spent the whole time sending texts on her mobile. The show was excellent but the interuptions did spoil our night. In fact we were on the point of walking out. Maybe just a bad night.

NOT AS GOOD AS THE MOVIE

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.

PURE PROPAGANDA

Execution of the message was fine...the message is the issue. Not exactly for little children , though it's socialist "progressive" indoctrination is geared to a childlike mind. Unnecessary profanity for shock value and to fill the empty space...gee, old ladies and little kids cursing...too easy. One redeeming point, you could barely understand what was being said so if you concentrate on the signing and dancing, the pro labor, pro gay , pro socialist message wont be so obtrusive. But still , little kids signing about wishing Maggie Thatcher dead!! Hate is hate.. on either side of the aisle.

NOT A FAMILY PLAY

walked out of this show...very vulgar language!!! Definitely not a family production. Very disappointing. Acting was great but not great enough to stay and listen to the vulgar and crude language.
