I'm gonna try to get tickets to this again for a third time but on the last minute side... to guarantee myself a different Billy.

Lol, no one's ever a lock. Though I guess it might make sense for Tommy to do the Tues show if the other three are doing Regis and Kelly that morning.

And I really enjoyed Keean as Michael. He definitely has his own take on the role, though it seems like he's still figuring some stuff out. His ending flourish to Expressing Yourself is great already tho, I hope he gets bumped up to a full-time spot if Frank ends up having to go film.

By last minute I mean when David is on, buy tickets for the next day. I loved David as Billy but really want to see another one.

I still need to see Keean. I also need to see David again. And Kiril again since I've not seen either of them since November. I need to get on this!

Its not even a given that a Billy wont do 2 days in a row...has happened alot...unlikely but dont bet the farm on it.

I visited with Greg after the show Sunday and while I was waiting for him to come down, all the ballet girls came out on stage and they were looking and looking for someone. Finally there she was - Doris Eaton Travis had come to see Billy Elliot and all the girls were waiting to meet her. Many photos were taken of the oldest Ziegfield girl with all the young ones. Then Greg and Haydn came out to meet with her. She looks and acts INCREDIBLE for someone her age! (105)

A total shame the Billys weren't even considered for the Drama Desk Award just for bureaucracy. I just can't believe everyone from Billy is nominated for this award, except the Billys, upon whom the entire shows relies.

I just found the amazing seat for this Wednesday at 8 PM and of course can't go.

Row A, Section 2, Seat 1 Center Mezzanine which is pretty much as dead center as you can get.


It's up for grabs.

I'm really disappointed about the Drama Desks nominations as well, and frankly annoyed that Shrek got more noms than BETM. :P

And Trent totally did two shows in a row a couple of weeks ago...

I know, it's just my best chance of seeing a different Billy.

[Geridith]

Posted: 4/27/09 at 3:58pm

Oh sorry, wasn't trying to burst your theory, that is probably the best way to ensure not seeing a specific Billy. The two-show in a row thing really doesn't happen very much, only once for the US show that I know of. Of course it happened the ONE time I saw the show two days in a row, lol... I'm sure your luck will be better.

Don't apologize, it's not your fault... unless you're the one making the schedule :P

Thought I'd just post a reminder of the Billys' performance on Regis and Kelly tomorrow morning! :)

A pox on the Drama desks!! I agree...everyone BUT the Billys nominated?? Though i agree maybe they should have coughed up a few more tickets...lol. So so far the different awards have done the spectrum on the Billys...all together, special award, and nothing, I sense disagreement...l

Any idea who might play billy at tomorrow's Matinee?

[bythesword84]

Posted: 4/28/09 at 5:24pm

The Drama Desk nominations just seem to be all over the place in general this year.

Anyone watch the Regis and Kelly performance? They were as good as always in my opinion. I feel like they look so much more seasoned then they did back when it first opened. Love them.

Ok, judging from the past...

Haha, I do occasionally do other things, clue. And lets not forget how utterly crap my phone is. AT&T wants $400 bucks from me to upgrade to an iPhone.... if only I could win the lottery. Or a game show.

"if only I could win the lottery. Or a game show"

Or devise a system that actually correctly predicts who is going to play Billy. You could make a fortune from that Geridith.

if only, BW :) Thurs eve: David/Frank, Maria C as Debbie.
