Hi, I've been reading this site since it started and decided to post my own comments. In my opinion, Billy Elliot the musical is outstanding and the whole cast should be congratulated for their obvious effort which they have put into the show. I have seen the show a few times now and it amazes me how each time i come out of the theatre enjoying the show even more than i did the previous time. I love the way the audience can relate to the story and the dance scenes are spectacular. Each boy that plays 'Billy' puts their own individual style on the character and they are all very talented. I can't wait until i go up again on dec 1st as i know it will be another fantastic evening! :)
Hey, welcome to the board!!! its great to hear another great review of the show and you are lucky to have seen it several times already and booked up again. Hope you enjoy it! GMFan!! X
Hi! Thanks! I've managed to see all 3 of the original 'Billies'. Including James' last performance which was the best so far and very moving for the whole audience.
Hi, ive managed to see george twice and leon once. i really wanted to see james but life aint fair lol! Its great to hear you got to see james last performance! (well thats wat it was called now that he has returned for a few days!) GMFan!! X
As I pointed out in an earlier post, Liam has a virus - this is all I know - I hope I speak for everybody on this board when I wish him a complete and speedy recovery.
James is I believe performing again next week Thursday (not sure which show) and Saturday matinee so try and get to see him then. Today's matinee was a very compact and professional performance from James. It was like he had never been away except he has grown in the last six weeks (the script had to refer to Billy as a thirteen year old) and his voice is deeper. Nice words of praise also for him at the curtain by Tim (Dad). It was also good to meet James and his family today. It is obvious to see why he is such a level headed and grounded young man who will surely go places in the performing business.Stephen D and Elton must be very proud of James as well.
Hey, well its glad to hear another great review of james performance! I think its good that they have changed the script as i think him being 11 is just unbelievable lol. Well i hope james carries on a fantastic run of performances and just enjoys every moment! I know that a few others were going to see the the show this afternoon so im looking forward to what they have got to say as well. Glad you enjoyed it Alan! GMFan!! X

George Maguire has to be the hottest of an exceptionally hot bunch; His singing and acting are terrific, but even those are like a single candle compared to the blazing bushfire that is his dancing. I defy anyone to say that they could put him out of their mind for a week after watching the show.
