The sequence where Billy confronts the police is emotionally charged, the dance becoming a key emotional element that you will not soon forget.

When I saw Billy Elliot recently, I kicked myself for not having seen it sooner. It is even better than the movie. And with it coming to Boston for a limited run, I just checked the advance discount (48% off!) stats and already some dates are gone, gone, gone.

About Billy Elliot

Set to what the New York Post calls Elton John’s “best score yet,” and named “Broadway Musical of the Decade” by TIME magazine, Billy Elliot the Musical blows into Boston. Based on the film smash, this joyous show is about a son of a small-town miner who trades his boxing gloves for ballet shoes and fights to achieve his dream of becoming a dancer, providing inspiration to his entire community.

The staging of the songs in Billy Elliot is amazing.

Billy Elliott is brought to vivid life by a phenomenal cast of 50 performers as well as the Tony-winning creative team — including director Stephen Daldry, who also directed the movie — for this hit production that has won over critics, swept awards and delighted millions of audience members worldwide.
