Billy Elliot, one of Britain's most successful films, comes to the stage, with the story of the young Northern boy who is determined to dance at the Royal Ballet School - despite all the doubters. With music by Elton John.
This original story captured the hearts and minds of the world and the film was nominated for 3 Oscars and 13 Baftas. This brilliant staging is an adaptation of one of the most adored British films of the last decade. Also one of the most successful British films in recent times.
Billy is born in a northern town where men box and work in the mines. They do not dance and they certainly do not harbour ambitions of attending the Royal Ballet School. But Billy is a bit different.
Billy Elliot – The Musical reunites the team behind the award-wining 2000 film – director Stephen Daldry, writer Lee Hall, choreographer Peter Darling and producer Jon Finn – and adds to that the musical mastery of Sir Elton John, to turn the highly acclaimed film into an all-singing, all-dancing stage spectacular.
Please note that Billy Elliot contains language which some people might find offensive or unsuitable for children.
