Posted: 5/14/09 at 8:19pmWoah... Liz Pearce is a Mum understudy?
#429re: The new Billy Elliot love thread
Posted: 5/14/09 at 8:50pmI would love to see that, those understudies are so different! Im so used to seeing Cara as Lesley and Liz doing the Clipboard woman, maybe it will happen again soon. I was at the show on Sunday and I noticed that Stephanie who plays Lesley was a little larger than normal and then I saw her outside the stagedoor and she was rubbing her stomach and that means she is pregnant! Congradulations! She is probably a great mother now and I cant wait till a new one comes into her life. Yay!

Hi everyone. I'm a huge "Billy Elliot" fan and recently I've been checking "We Are Billy Elliot" every day and, of course, entering the giveaways. For a while now they have been advertising that on May 15th along with the Gregory Jbara video would be a chance to win a dance class with the Billys, which sounded like the best prize there could be-- but today it's just listed as a cast recording! 
Does anyone know why this changed, or if there's going to be another chance?

If anybody wants to see Tanner make his New York debut then you better get along to the Imperial as he is on the board for today's matinee.
Having seen Tanner a number of times I know he will be fantastic.

Posted: 5/16/09 at 9:22pmI know someone who went, and said that he was great. His accent is still a little strong, but I am sure it will be toned down a bit. They may write something up later.
#445re: The new Billy Elliot love thread
Posted: 5/16/09 at 11:46pmThere's reviews up at both BETM forums. Sounds like he did a great job, can't wait to see him :)
#446re: The new Billy Elliot love thread
Posted: 5/17/09 at 12:19amI'm surprised they put him on pre-Tonys, you'd think they'd want to limit a non-nominated boy going on since the voters have to see one of the three.
And hang on, when did you win the discus?
#447re: The new Billy Elliot love thread
Posted: 5/17/09 at 12:44amMost Tony votes go to evening shows, so they are probably sticking him in matinees for a reason.
