Wow... all this talk of Billy has certainly picked up today!
Welcome to everyone of you who has joined us these last few days and anyone that has transfered across from the Whatsonstage board.
I guess this is now the main discussion site about Billy Elliot the Musical that is currently on the web?
I am new to the board. Been reading it since I went to see the show last week.Found out a few days ago that our neighbour is going to be one of the new ballet girls. She is a very talented dancer, it must be quite difficult to dance badly, but i thought the ballet girls were sooooo funny. They were excellent, yet rarely get a mention on this board. If anyone knows anything about ballet girls please post. She will start performing on week beginning 5th Dec. Great to hear that Hadyn is staying. Anyone know who will be taking over as Dad?
Just wondering...
Do we have to wear formal clothing (suit, etc) for 3rd december?
I heard when julie andrews came to Mary Poppins, the audiences had to wear formal clothes

I thought you all might like to know that even though Hadyn is staying on in the show after December 3rd, she won't be doing a full week! I've heard that she is having every Monday off to spend more time with her family.
I wonder who could be playing this role on her day off?
That is true. I heard that from Lin
If there was anything in the script that you could change, what would it be? (Also, feel free to elaborate on what you would absolutely keep and why.)
This is definitely the day for new members - I've been watching this board for some time now, and just had to join in.
My choice for a script change - it is to ADD something. Whatever happened to the "Don't lose your blob" line from the film - I thought it was Soooo funny!

Thanks for the info, fizzipop!
I personally and normally wear slipper to the theatre. I'm not a fashion boy.
Julie andrews rock!
Alan mentioned the wrong music at the start of Billy's Royal Ballet audition. I seem to remember that at the beginning of the run, back in May, it was a different piece of music. Anyone else confirm this?

When is his birthdate anyway? Thanks for the tip about my fashion!
Everybody who just joined today, Welcome.
No abusive message, please!
just re-visited the movie: WOWW!!!
technically it's Liam in Jamie Bell's role since Jamie Bell originated the role and Liam is just following in Mr. Bell's footsteps.
Ms. Walters was very good, but i don't think she was as good as everyone said. Mr. Bell is superb (and if any of the three boys are as good as him they are lucky). I enjoyed Gary Lewis's preformance as Billy's father a lot. he is brilliant and Jamie Draven's Tony is so great! a well played role. As well as Stuart Wells' Michael.
the music in the picture is perfect, Mr. Daldry's direction is stunning...
i guess i just can't say enough good things about this movie!
ideal cast if could choose from musical an film
billy=liam from musical
mrs wilkinson=julie from film
dad=gary from film
tony=guy from musical forgot his name
michael=stuart from film
debbie=girl from film dont know name
gran=lady from musical dont know name
