Billy Elliot
Much of the power of Billy Elliot as an honest tear-jerker lies in its ability to give equal weight to the sweet dreams of terpsichorean flight and the sourness of a dream-denying reality.

WOW
If you have not seen this, you must! I attended the Sat.
2012.08.04 show with Ben Cook as Billy. He was amazing!
The entire cast and production was by far more
entertaining than I anticipated. I enjoyed it so much I
already have tickets for Baltimore. Yes, I will travel to see
this show again, probably more than once. Excellent! p.s.
front row seats are worth whatever you spend. ... Read more
