Based on what has been posted, I may be seeing Kiril on Saturday night if they are rotating in the following manner:

11/4 eve. - Kiril
11/5 mat. - Trent
11/5 eve. - David
11/6 eve. - Kiril
11/7 eve. - Trent
11/8 mat. - David
11/8 eve. - Kiril

Does anyone know when press nights begin? Are they this weekend?

I think it's the 5 nights leading up to the opening so Sat night would be a critics night.

I believe the press nights are the 11th, 12th, and 13th.

so... which Billy will be on for opening night???

Well, if there is anything to this 'pattern', then

11/7 - (8 ) Trent
11/8 - (2) David, (8 ) Kiril
11/9 - dark
11/10 - (8 ) Trent
11/11 - (8 ) David
11/12 - (8 ) Kiril
11/13 - opening - Trent?

Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing them rotate the 3 boys into the opening night show at various points. Opening night is special and I'm not sure how many people will be there strictly to see the show. This way all would qualify for playing the lead on opening night.

I'm sure Trent will go on for opening night. He's been doing it the longest, hasn't here?

Hi everybody !
I came from Mexico City just to see Kiril Kulish performance.Last time I 've seen him
in the Palacio de Artes in Mexico with ABT and I right away knew that this is a new
ballet star. He has something that nobody does. I know that he was a winner grand prix of ballet competition. We have a big group in Mexico who loves Kiril and waiting for him to do concert again.

I like Mamie's suggestion of using all three boys in various scenes on opening night. That would also make all three Tony eligable and settle that opinion poll on the right.

I've read elsewhere that one Billy will be used for both Press nights on the 11th and 12th. A different Billy will then be used for the Premiere.

^ Yes, that is is what I heard as well.

I think that Trent will do the Opening night, not only because he has done it the longest, but also because Kiril did the first preview and David did the invited dress. Updated On: 11/7/08 at 08:17 PM

And the third actor won't be included at all? Or am I not understanding you?

[WiCkEDrOcKS]

Posted: 11/7/08 at 8:32pm

So will Kiril definitely be on tomorrow evening? Any chance of Trent going on?

[kdek004]

Posted: 11/7/08 at 11:16pm

who was on tonight?

[antiandrewx]

Posted: 11/8/08 at 12:19am

Trent

Who's getting the two press nights? Kiril?

[Testing1232]

Posted: 11/8/08 at 12:29am

Trent was on tonight.. He was amazing, but so far.. out of Kiril and Trent, I preferred Kiril.

“And the third actor won't be included at all? Or am I not understanding you?”

Yes you understood perfectly.

Critics were at the show Friday night, November 7th.

They won't be there Saturday night, November 8th.

Critics will be at the show Monday - Friday (10th - 14th) next week.

Thus saith Greg Jbara.

So that whole thing about only two press nights with one Billy, and no press at the show opening night -- that's baloney, folks.

Thanks Barb!

It is obvious that in this Bily Elliot's thread, we only have the families of Trent and Kiril participating!!!!!! It's sooooo funny!!

Anyways, only the 11th and 12th are the nights for the press. The 13th is not a press night. This information is confirmed.

Another thing: there will be surprises as to which Billy will perform on the press nights - he's already chosen!!!!!!!!

The 13th is not a press night. This information is confirmed.

Of course it's not. It's their opening night.

Posted: 11/8/08 at 12:00pm

So... who's performing tonight (Saturday, 11/? Does anyone know for sure?

[Maurice]

Posted: 11/9/08 at 12:31am

The pattern in fact did have Kiril performing tonight (11/. I'm very happy that I got to see him... He lived up to all the glowing remarks that have been posted about him.

If anyone sees David go on, let me know how he does. His dad is one of the professors in my program at school.
