Trent in his blog from his dance teacher wrote he signed on for four to six more months.

Is there a reason David B is leaving, like does he have something else planned? He doesn't seem to have outgrown the part yet, unless his voice recently cracked.

Got my tickets for Kiril's last this morning! So excited Keean is joining full rotation as Michael, he was always my personal fave.
Stephen: "Could you grab me a coffee?"
Me: "Would you like that with all the colors of the wind?"

I would like to get tickets for Kiril's last, but there are no rmezz seats left ($41.50).

I splurged and bought right orchestra partial view. Was planning on spending the money anyway b/c a friend was able to get house seats for a different date for the same price, but decided Kiril's last was more important.

What I have been hearing is that David B is getting homesick and he wants to live a normal high school life back in Texas. I am hoping to catch Kiril's last day, if I don't get Birdie for ushering.
My guess is that David Alvarez will be Billy for Bologna's last day. Trevor as Michael for Kiril's last day. Trent and Keean for Haydn last day.
Past cast members will be there sept 27th, oct 3rd and Oct 4th.

Funny, cute story that happened to me...
I saw the Wednesday matinee of 9 to 5 this week. At the stage door afterwards, there was this little boy standing next to me, so I tried to move over as much as I could so he could have room to move up to the barricade and see better. SJB came out and made her way down the line. After she passed me and got to the little boy, she looked at him and looked surprised and said, "You are..." And the little boy replied, "I'm in Billy Elliot." Then I realized it was David Bologna! Steph asked him how everything was going over at Billy.
He's on vacation this week. I think it's so cute that on his days off he goes to see other shows and stage doors. He is adorable!

Awww, I love David B...
And seriously, no one around on Sat? Evening show? Even if you're not seeing BE, can anyone just go by and check?

Kiril will be missed. It's so sad the original Billy's are growing up.
Good Luck to you Alex and welcome to Broadway.

The Billy rotation for any given week is never announced. I can only guess it won't be Trent since he played Billy during last week's Wednesday mat.

...is there a reason only David and Trent are performing this week?

Posted: 8/29/09 at 11:38pm
Tommy and Kiril are injured. Word is Tommy will be back soon. YAY. I'm sure Kiril will be, too. Must be tough on David and Trent to do all the shows for the week.

As per Trevor...the Michael's get their schedules's two weeks in advance...not sure if it works the same way with Billy's.

Tommy and Kiril are both injured? And David's just back from an injury, right? Oy.
And hang on, when did you win the discus?

Knock on wood not Trent next. Feel Better to Kiril and Tommy. The cast sometimes does not know who is Billy until an hour and half before the performance.

Does anyone know the severity of Tommy and Kiril's injuries or at least how they happened?
Stephen: "Could you grab me a coffee?"
Me: "Would you like that with all the colors of the wind?"

so i might see trent or david i hope i see one of the two consindering they won the tony so but i guess ill be fine with who ever i see

You shouldn't want to see David, Trent or Kiril because they won a Tony. Tommy is just as good, if not better.

its not just that when i got the tickets i had never heard of tommy but i wouldnt mind seeing him but from what i read on here it says he and kiril are injured if thats true then i hope i get to see either trent or david

well...seeing that there are ONLY four of them that play the part...it seems inevitable to see either David or Trent.
I've seen them both, and until I saw Trent for the 2nd time, I would have said I preferred David's performance. I no longer feel that way. Trent has grown beautifully in the role.
