How do you get that google alert? I don't understand. I have a Google France account. Could you explain how to get it, please?

This is getting confusing.... Some said Liam and some said all.

Thanks GMFan!
I saw it.

I think dress circle is just mentioning the casts of the show, not the one featured, but in playbill, it is said that they would be featured.

Well, who knows? Prepare to be surprirsed in 14 days!

Hi
Can any1 help i want 2 buy the Billy Elliot cd cast recording. Wheres the best website to get it from. What is on the special addition cd?
Thanks

Best to buy it directly from a shop. I haven't ordered any.

If you got Peachtree Road album, and the programme, I think it is better to buy ordinary OCR. It's not worth paying extra £6 just for that.

I know this is going back but BillyFan2, the reason for Joey going on with James while Bradley is resting, if you think about it is because Ryan is too small! It wouldn't look right!!Hehe.

Nice to know Liam is well, up and running and a HUGE round of applause and a well done to James for filling in on such short notice, you are and will be sorely missed. You are an ace character!

So, who will definitely go to see george's last performance?
26 days to go!

Posted: 11/7/05 at 6:29pm

Wow - 26 days left? Time does go by fast. George, if you read this (lol) - well done on coming so far - you never gave up and you got what you wanted and deserved. I guess its back to the drums after this. Well you definately deserve all your dreams to come true.

Bit strange this but does anyone else want the main cast to be absent sometimes? (hey not on Dec 3rd obviously! )
Let me explain,having seen it 16 times now i'm begining to think Hayden and Joe are indestructable!!! As great as these two are i'd love to get a chance to see another take on the roles,i've seen every other main charactor played by the understudy but Hayden and Joe are always there lol!!
Said it was a strange one!

I saw Gillian (Is that her name?) playing Mrs. Wilkinson two weeks ago and I thought she was great. I prefer Haydn though. She's taller and the szene were she meets Billy's dad for the first time is much funnier.
Well, I think sooner or later we'll see a change in the adult cast anyway...

Gillian does a great job as Mrs Wilkinson but theres just something about Haydn's presence on stage that is magical.

[w_tanoto]

Posted: 11/8/05 at 7:38am

Haydn's voice is stronger. That's why I prefer Haydn

[Bifi]

Gillian has a beautiful voice! Mrs. Wilkinson just gets a slightly different character when she's playing it - Mrs. W. doesn't seem to be so dominant and mean.

I guess the reason that I like Haydn's performance is because she can show that hard exterior. The counterbalance between the hard outside and the soft inside is wonderful. Watch her face when she tells Billy "he hasn't got a hope" just before the "Angry Dance". You'll see the tears glistening in her eyes.

I REALY liked Gillian, after seeing her 3 times. I think if you didn't read the notice on the box office (which prob no one does!)... you won't even notice she's an understudy/alternate! I think the approuch by her and Haydn are so different. Haydn to me is much cooler and Gillian was much warmer. Both were gd, can't choose a fav.! But I think Joe and Tim are the 'can-never-be-replaced' ones! Sorry Chris n Alex... but they are just SO remarkable imo!

Thats awesomee :)

I agree with ruthiefan_felix. The first time I saw gillian, I don't know if it's haydn or gillian, but later after "shine", I know that it was gillian. Haydn has something undescribable that gillian does not have.

So, ruthiefan_felix, have you got the ticket yet? Hope that info helps

I have seen both of them, and i just feel that haydn comes across as the stronger character, although they were both amazing. Also, haydn created the role and i think that puts her at a slight advantage over gillian, but i dont mind which i see, they both have their strong points, and are both hillarious on stage

Posted: 11/8/05 at 1:16pm

I agree completely

[BIlly Elliot2]

Posted: 11/8/05 at 1:29pm

I totally agree. Personally I prefer Joe to Chris Lennon. Joe just has that extra edge that no one can replace. His passion within the role gives me shivers!
