This original
story captured the hearts and minds of the world and the film was
nominated for 3 Oscars and 13 Baftas. This brilliant staging is an
adaptation of one of the most adored British films of the last
decade. Also one of the most successful British films in recent times.
Billy is born in a
northern town where men box and work in the mines. They do not dance
and they certainly do not harbour ambitions of attending the Royal
Ballet School. But Billy is a bit different.
Billy Elliot -
The Musical reunites the team behind the award-wining 2000 film;
director Stephen Daldry, writer Lee Hall, choreographer Peter
Darling and producer Jon Finn, and adds to that the musical
mastery of Sir Elton John, to turn the highly acclaimed film into an all-singing,
all-dancing stage spectacular.
Please note that
Billy Elliot contains language which some people might find offensive
or unsuitable for children.
We
say: Billy
Elliot - the musical is
repeatedly listed in theatregoer's all time top three West End shows.
Beyond the virtuoso performance of the boys who play Billy - their
outstanding acting, singing and dancing - the show is one of the
few that has truly grown during the transition from film to stage.
Billy
Elliot - the musical manages to be both funnier and sadder than
the film! And without the tricks of the camera you know that you are
watching something truly remarkable happen in front of your eyes...
night after night!
It
is also a brilliant choice for the "dutiful male"
in your party. There is no doubt that some West End shows are there
for the ladies - the gentlemen are there to hold your drink and
programme whilst you queue for the loo. But Billy is a boys'
show too. Not that it is coursing with testosterone like Top Gear
- the stage show, it just talks to both sexes. Simple... and
simply enjoyable. |
