Aww, she didn't mention that. Let's hope for a speedy recovery!!
I just wanted to remind everyone of the "Finding Billy" documentary airing tonight on PBS!! 8pm for those of us in the New York area. Can't wait!

It sucks for me because I live in NC and our PBS isn't showing it. Could someone possibly record it and upload it online for me and, I guess, the others out there who won't be able to view it? Thanks :}

The new West End Billy Elliot Brad Wilson had his first performance tonight.

Seeing the show tonight...I have been listening to the cast recording non-stop for the past few days. I appreciate the score a lot more having seen it multiple times. "Shine" and "Electicity" are my favorites to listen to, but the Swan Lake ballet is the best part of the show in my opinion. When I saw it last Tuesday, I was in tears...and I'm sure I will be in tears again tonight. Can't wait.

sorry about that... I just fixed it. Here is another one with Hillary and Chelsea Clinto after seeing the show.

loved these pictures of hilary and chelsea with the whole cast, i guess we will be seeing another greg jbara video soon too. i love how the clintons go see broadway shows, and they feel so comfortable and like meeting the cast.
Put me on the David Alvarez band wagon...he was truly brilliant tonight!!! The show was on fire. I am predicting Tony wins for the Billys (obvious), Hadyn Gwynn and Greg Jbara. I love this show so much and can't wait to see it again!

Saw this glorious musical for a second time last night. My first time seeing David Alvarez and he is a wonderful actor. He adds a poignancy to the show that elevates it to an even higher level. A performance to treasure. Updated On: 12/3/08 at 09:43 AM

Does anybody know who went on as Billy on Sunday and today? Was it Kiril and Trent, respectively? It seems as though there is the pattern of Trent, David, Kiril...
Broadway Legend Joined: 8/16/06
yeah, Kiril was on Sunday, and that is the order it has been.

Thanks, sgv123. That means, if everything goes liek that the next coupel weeks and I have counted right, I SHOULD be seeing David, but from what I hear, it doesn't really matter which boy I see...I can't imagine being half as talented as any of them...
last week it went david, kiril, trent. not sure about the michaels. i would go again and see the other two billys, including frank as michael. sorry i have busy with the last three weeks of my semester will write my review around dec 18th when i saw the show dec 3rd at 8pm.
Please don't hate me for asking the same question as the others, but anyone know who was Billy last night?
Thanks for the info. & Happy Friday to all!
Well, Kiril was Billy for the 12/10 evening show (he was amazing btw), so 12/11 was probably Trent. Someone else could confirm though.
how is the view from center rear mezz?
