xoxoxoFavourite moment in films Billy Elliot, This is England and Kes.?
I have only seen Billy elliot and my favorite part from that movie is when he goes over to his friends house and his friend is dressed up in one of his moms or sisters dresses and has lip stick on. I just love that part so much. I also love the part when his dad catches him dancing for the first time, and he keeps on dancing, that part is priceless. I love that movie so much, have it in my movie collection.

  • London stage Musicals Billy Elliot and Sound of music. if youve seen both which is the best?

    thanks! ArthurLondon stage Musicals Billy Elliot and Sound of music. if youve seen both which is the best?
    I agree that Billie Elliot is the best play. Though it depends what your looking for in a play. The dancing in Billy Elliot was much better and actually so was the singing even if there wasn't as much of it! The sound of music is just a bit boring.
    I went on a visit with school to see both billy elliot and the sound of music. I was VERY impressed by both of them but in my oppinion Billy Elliot is the best by far I thort it was REALLY good!!London stage Musicals Billy Elliot and Sound of music. if youve seen both which is the best?
    The Sound of Music drags on. Seriously... don't go.



    Billy Elliot on the other hand is great. A really good night/day out.

    Questions about the movie "billy Elliot"?

    I watched the movie Billy Elliot on tv the other day and was some what confussed at the end.To wether billy was actually a homosexual himself or not.Because it kind of went back and forth,1st he ended up on top of that girl on her bed,and then his friend put lip stick on him.Then his friend kissed him and addmitted to be gay and billy said he wasn't,but then when he left for his school he kissed his friend back on the cheek....confussed?anyone remember seeing this older movie and might have some helpful insights?Questions about the movie "billy Elliot"?
    He is not gay, his friend was but billy is not. Just because he kissed a guy on the cheek does not make him gay. This movie is a masterpiece.Questions about the movie "billy Elliot"?
    He wasnt gay, just his friend was, but I think people thought he was gay because he liked ballet.

    Is The Billy Elliot Film Plausible?

    Hi everyone! I don't know how to word my question, so I am sorry! It might not make any sense but allow me to explain:

    I love the film Billy Elliot and what I like about it is that it relates to dancing, which is my passion in life! He only studies ballet for a short while before an audition at the RBS, and his instructor said "they teach you the stuff, it's how you move," meaning that it's the way you express yourself and that the school teaches you all the steps. I started ballet a short while ago and I love it! I am naturally flexible, passionate and dedicated and other pupils in the class didn't believe me when I said it was my first time doing ballet. I am a good tap dancer and jazz as well. I have read about performing art schools recently and my dream is to attend one. Tring Park is beautiful but the fees are so expensive. Elmhurst is as well, but I haven't looked into that one much. What would be my chances of attending a performing arts school before I leave secondary education?

    Thanks!

    xx

    :D



    **Also, would I have to choreography my OWN audition routine?**Is The Billy Elliot Film Plausible?
    For a boy it might be plausible, but not for a girl. The are hungry for male dancers and will overlook a lot to have a boy train. Girls on the other hand are way more than they need. The young man in the film was obviously a tap dancer not a ballet dancer too.

    For audition you do a ballet class. That part was fantasy.

    Okay, in Billy Elliot in the movie, is Billy gay?

    last night I saw Billy Elliot the musical for the second time with my sister and her friend who'd never seen it. And at the end, her friend asked "wait, so is he gay or not?" And my sister's like "not in the musical, but in the movie he is." And I was like... what are you talking about? And she was like, "wasn't it obvious at the end, when he kissedx Michael?" And I was like, "it had the exact same ending as the musical!" But she said it was different...



    So, is he gay, or what?Okay, in Billy Elliot in the movie, is Billy gay?
    I don't believe that he is. He kissed Michael because that was his goodbye gift to him, but in every other way he shows that he is not gay.

    Great movie, by the way.

    I believe that Michael is wearing a turban at the end because he is dressed as a woman. Remember how he liked to wear his mother's clothes.
    This is one of my all-time favorite movies. He only kisses Micheal in the end, because Micheal was his really good friend and he was leaving and he knew Micheal liked him. In the end when Billy is older it's all kind of up in the air. I think they have it left open and up for the viewers to decide.Okay, in Billy Elliot in the movie, is Billy gay?
    The movie doesn't portray him as gay. One of the messages was that his love of dance is separate from his sexual identity. Like the other posters said, the kiss was a gift for Michael, not because he liked him.

  • Billy Elliot Ballet girls auditions!?

    Im 13 years old 5 feet brown hair brown eyes ive been dancing since i was 2 with a lot of acting experience. I want to audition for billy elliot on broadway or on tour can some one give me an exact day or a website. I would be perfect for the role because i can sing and dance and act. I also got accepted for the part of Debbie in the chicago production but i don't like in that area so i couldn't take it. Anyway PLEASE HELP!!!!!Billy Elliot Ballet girls auditions!?
    If you were cast as Debbie, the lead role, in chicago, and turned it down, you probably regret that now. The open calls for ballet girls are published in backstage.com, and bebilly.com, but since there's an age limit (12) and height limit (4 10) for the open calls, you are better off directly contacting the CD who offered you the role of Debbie, and letting her know you are still interested and would like to be considered for a different role now.

    Billy Elliot Broadway Audition?

    i saw infomation about auditioning for billy elliot on broadway and i want to but i couldn't make a audtion city so they told me to send a headshot,resume,and letter to a adress.but to audition for a ballet girl u have to be under 12 and i'm 13.but some of the ballet girls are 17.do you think they would mind my age? also you must be under 4'11 i'm 5 foot but i dont think that matters.what will they do once they get the headshot,resume,and letter?Billy Elliot Broadway Audition?
    What they DIDN'T tell you.. because they don't want to be indelicate.. is.. THEY GO BY YOUR PERIODS... For YOUNG GIRLS on Broadway.. ONCE they start having PERIODS.. they are OFF THE SHOW.. this is true for ANNIE and for BILLIE ELLIOT and for SOUND OF MUSIC and for many shows that rely on the actors being YOUNG girls... This is also why some 17 year old WOMEN are still on the show.

    Billy Elliot Ballet Girl Audition Help?

    I just saw Billy Elliot: the Musical in Chicago this past Sunday, and I absolutely fell in LOVE with it! It also sort of planted a wish in me: to be able to try out for a part as a ballet girl. I'm 13 years old and stand at 5 feet, so I realize that I'm a year older and two inches taller than what they want, but hopefully they won't hold that against me. I know how to do ballet and some jazz, but I don't know much about tap - I can, however, pick up most styles quickly. I'm not overweight, but I do have some curves, and I'm Sri Lankan (I look Indian). Do I have any chance whatsoever of getting in?



    Also, I'm not very sure if I can make it to the Chicago open call that they're holding on October 24th. Can I just send in a picture and my resume, or do I also have to post a video of myself on their BeBilly website? If it's the latter, what sort of things will I have to do?



    Please post some actually good answers - I'm tired of looking up questions and seeing a bunch of bogus or rude answers. Thank you!Billy Elliot Ballet Girl Audition Help?
    Not to be rude, but if your not at the open call I don't think they will take you seriously. Also, being a big production if they say how old and how tall they want the ballet girls to be, there probably not going to change that unless you are insanely good. Hope that helps.Billy Elliot Ballet Girl Audition Help?

  • So who else here loves 'Billy Elliot'?

    I love this film, but none of my friends have ever liked or even seen it. So I was wondering who else liked it...my favorite characters are Billy and his gay best friend, his friend is great...I think I liked it because it was kind of silly but really sad at the same time and I think that's how life is....it's silly and sad and confusing and joyous and crappy all at the same time and 'Billy Elliot' really captures what its like for a little kid to grow up in all this craziness. I love it, what do you guys think and if you have a favorite character throw that them in as well and why....So who else here loves 'Billy Elliot'?
    I love that movie!! I just got it from Netflix. Takes me to a happy place. I love the way Billy just loves to dance. Always hard to see how his dad is in the beginning but he comes around. I think it is a great movie for pre-teens!!
    Sure!



    A brilliant film!So who else here loves 'Billy Elliot'?
    It was a really good movie!

    I saw it a few years ago, so I don't remember too many of the characters :-/

    Tell your friends who haven't seen it to watch it-- or better yet have a movie night and invite them over! Serve some snacks and it'll be a great time :)
    its awsome i love it

    How is Billy Elliot the musical? A few Questions on it?

    Okay, I know I already posted this, but I had no answers so let's try again



    So, in about a week I am going to NY and I can't wait. My mom is going to buy the tickets for two shows online in a few days and I have a few final questions.



    #1. Is Billy Elliot appropriate for a 12 year old?

    #2. Is it a weird musical?

    #3. How is the dancing?

    #4. On a scale of 1-10 how would you rate it? Is it in your top 3 faves?

    #5. Is it awkward at all (like if a kid went with her mom)?

    #6. Is the accent hard to understand?

    #7. In 5 words or less describe Billy Elliot.



    I understand its a lot of questions but I want to make sure I go with the right musical. Please answer however many you want. The one with the most answers gets 10 points! Thank you so much, I really appreciate it.How is Billy Elliot the musical? A few Questions on it?
    1 Yes, it is appropriate for a 12 year-old if parents are okay with some pretty stiff swearing, much of it coming from the kids in the show.

    #2 No, it is not weird.

    #3 The dancing is fabulous, and it doesn't matter which Billy you see, you will be amazed at his dancing.

    #4 On a scale of 1-10, I would rate it an 11. But then, I am a diehard fan of this show. It is definitely the top of my top 3 faves.

    #5 No, it is not awkward for kids with their parents.

    #6 The accent is not hard to understand. If there are some words that are unfamiliar, like "pasty," for instance, they are explained in the big souvenir program but not in the free playbill. There is also a good explanation of the background of the 1984 miners' strike in the program that will help you to understand what is going on with Billy's family and community.

    #7 6 words: It's brilliant. You won't be disappointed.

    #8 I hope your mom can find some tickets to buy!
    1. Yes, the language can get a little bad at times but overall it's nothing too too bad. I mean it's better content wise than say, Rent or Spring Awakening (still quite good shows though), but it's not exactly Wicked or Hairspray either.



    2. Not at all, it's brilliant =)



    3. The dancing is amazing. The entire cast was great, and the kid that I saw playing Billy completely blew my mind. There are three different actors who play him, but I'm sure that the other two Billys are of equal caliber. These kids have been dancing pretty much since they could walk, and they're better than many adults.



    4. Probably like an 8 or 9, and I'd have to say it's #3 after Sweeney Todd and Spring Awakening.



    5. It's not awkward in the least, I saw it with my mom and didn't feel awkward at all.



    6. I didn't think it was, I think what might be of more concern is the British words and references they use might be a little confusing. I'm pretty sure they tell you what the words mean in the Playbill though, and if not it's in the program (if you are so inclined to buy one)



    7. An all around awesome musical =)How is Billy Elliot the musical? A few Questions on it?
    1. It really depands on the 12 year old. If you are very mature for your age, and your parents dont mind harsh cursing, and the topic of sexuality- it should be fine.



    2.It can be percieved as weird because of some of its abstract scenery/ideas.



    3. The dancing is fantastic, and is the main reason to see the show.



    4. I would give it a six. its defanately not in my three favs.



    5. Because of dome of the sexual subject matter the kids talk about ("Expressing Yourself"), it will be awkward, yes, but more so if a boy went to see the show with their parents.



    6.Its not too difficult



    7. A great dance show.



    -try seeing Wicked, Phantom, Next To Normal, 9 To 5, or West Side Story.

    Billy Elliot Musical theatre seating?

    Okay, please someone help.



    I just booked tickets to go and see Billy Elliot in the Capitol theatre in Sydney. I've already seen the production twice and bought tickets for myself and my mum to go and see it again as a present for her stopping chemotherapy.



    I wanted very, very good seats and I didn't care what I payed. I also had very spercific ideas of where I wanted the seats. I wanted them to be on the inner left (looking at the stage left) aisle because that's the aisle Billy walks up. When I wrang up and told the ticket man what I wanted he said he found two in row B, seats 8 and 9. He said they were on the INNER AISLE. But now I'm looking at the theatre seating plan and their on the outside aisle! It looks like we might not be able to see much at all!

    This cost me $206 and he told me the wrong thing. I'm so angry and upset right now. I'm actually crying so hard, I'm so disapointed.

    Can anyone tell me if these are actually okay seats, or if there is anything I can do?Billy Elliot Musical theatre seating?
    These are fine seats, exactly where you want them. GO ENJOY IT!! IT IS A GREAT SHOW!!

    Q. about Billy Elliot {film study}?

    In the film Billy Elliot, at what point do you think is Billy's point of no return** (or main dramatic decision)?

    For the two other characters Jackie (the father) %26amp; Tony (the brother) when is there's too?

    For Jackie - could it be when he sees Billy dancing and he goes to talk to Mrs. Wilkinson/ the ballet instructor --%26gt; is there he accepts Billy's passion?





    ** Point of no return - the main dramatic decision. The character is faced with a "life changing" decision, and once they make a decision they won't be able to go back to equilibrium or how their life was before.





    Thank you !!!!Q. about Billy Elliot {film study}?
    For Billy, I really think it's the part where he explains to the judges how he feels when he's dancing. Before the audition he backs down a little and tells his dad he's changed his mind, but after it he tells the judges he feels a change, like there's sparks, like fire, like electricity etc. It's a big moment because it's the first time he's admitted it and I think it's the moment where he realises he wants to dancer for life. (The 'Electricity' number in the musical is so moving, haha)



    For Tony, maybe the part where Jackie is about to go to work when they're on strike and Tony confronts him about it. He says that he doesn't have to go back to work because they'll somehow find the money for Billy to go to the audition and they end up on the ground crying. It's moment where Tony accepts Billy wants to go to the audition.



    And Jackie's point of no return is definitely the part where he sees Billy dancing in the club!

    Billy Elliot or Christmas Spectacular?

    In December, my friend is coming to visit and we're going to see a show in New York City. We're stuck between Billy Elliot and Radio City's Christmas Spectacular. I know Billy Elliot is a great show, but the tickets are all around $150 so I was wondering if it was worth the price. The Christmas Spectacular looks good too and it has cheaper tickets. I would love to see the Rockettes.



    Please let me know what you thought of either show, or which one you think would be better to see. Thanks!Billy Elliot or Christmas Spectacular?
    I agree with Verity.



    Billy Elliot sells out FAST. You would need to get your tickets now if you decide on that show. If you decide on that show last minute, you could do try the ticket lottery, but your chances are pretty slim.



    The Christmas Spectacular is a classic, and highly enjoyable. It's only around once a year. I, personally, would choose this, but it's your choice. If you decide on this, go ahead and get tickets now for the best hope of sitting close.



    They are both very, very good shows. The decision is truly up to you. Enjoy which ever show you decide to see! :)Billy Elliot or Christmas Spectacular?
    They're both good choices, but tickets to "Billy Elliott" aren't simply expensive, they're hard to get.

    The show is regularly sold out.



    Needless to say, Radio City Music Hall is a much bigger venue, and the Spectaculars go on several times any given day.



    So, for availability alone, you should go for the Spectacular. The venue alone will make you gasp.

    Billy Elliot at TKTS?

    Has anyone who has recently been in NYC notice if Billy Elliot is on the TKTS board? I know its gained a lot of popularity and I dont know if its now with the "un-boardables" like lion king, wicked and jersey boys.



    Im going into the city on 9/13 for something and my mom and I wanted to see a show. the only tickets left on telecharge are $81.50..then you have to pay like another $10 for processing :( and we really dont want to spend that kind of money



    so ya. billy elliot? tkts?



    thanks!Billy Elliot at TKTS?
    No. You will not find Billy Elliot The Musical at the TKTS venue. That has been true since the show opened last fall, and I have been there twice this summer to see the show.

    The show is basically selling to 95 to 100 percent audiences each night, and those numbers would have to come down quite a bit (hopefully they won't - terrific show) before you're gonna get em there.

    At this short notice, I would call the Box Office Directly to see if there might be any rear mezzanine seats available. The theater offers great sight lines from the back of the small auditorium and the $41.50 seats at the back are just fine, really.

    I found out when taking my mother to the show in June, that handicapped seating (my mom was in a wheelchair) is adjacent to the stage right orchestra section beginning with Row J or K. The wheelchair slot and the seat at the end of the row accompanying it are priced also at $41.50. A pretty good deal. Billy and Michael walk by you there at the start of Act II.

    Even the $81.50 partial view seats are great and will likely go fast, real fast. I'd grab 'em. My friend liked the show so much, he gladly shelled out $126 for a front mezz seat to see it again. I guess I would too, for that matter, if that's all there were. Great show!

    Oh,, and you can avoid the processing charge by going to the Broadway.com web site, clicking on Billy Elliot tickets, and processing your order printing out the tickets on your own computer printer. No charge for calling Box Office and having tickets held for you at Box Office either, I seem to recall.

    Hope this is of some help.

    Classical Music Trivia: Billy Elliot?

    In the film Billy Elliot, what's the name of the piano solo that is played when Mrs. Wilkinson is preparing Billy for his first audition while at the dance bar?



    I have been in love with that song for 6 years now and NO ONE has been able to tell me the name or the composer. I feel so tormented (LOL!)!!Classical Music Trivia: Billy Elliot?
    "Sc猫ne"

    from "Swan Lake, Op.20"

    Written by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky
    I've found the song! It's called "A Child is Born." Evidently there's thousands of variations of it--some jazz and some with lyrics.

    In the movie, I think the actor deliberately made them not so good to make it more life like and convincing. But its amazing what you can do with some raw determination and undeniable potential. I've seen one girl having perfect fouette turns in one week! That is really good.



    So, yes I do think its possible. It just depends on how hard you work.

  • The plot of the movie " Billy Elliot"?

    i need a summary of the movie Billy Elliot.The plot of the movie " Billy Elliot"?
    Let me get the summary out of the way first: Billy Elliot (Jamie Bell) is a cute freckled kid growing up in a mining town in the North of England during the mid-eighties. There's a strike going on, and his father and brother are busy throwing eggs and rocks at cops and scabs. Billy's mom is dead, and his grandmother is crazy (funny-crazy, not disturbing-crazy, mind you.)



    Billy's dad (Gary Lewis) sends his lad boxing, but soon enough the boy gets interested in the ballet lessons going on in the same gym. Two scenes later, he trades his gloves for a tutu and steals ballet books from the library bus. Of course his dad mustn't find out about it because English miners are famous for their homophobia and distaste for the fine arts. There's conflict ahead, but Billy's teacher (Julie Walters) thinks he might be good enough to try out for the Royal Ballet School. Can Billy overcome the odds to become a dancer?The plot of the movie " Billy Elliot"?
    Voila.

    Quotes from Billy Elliot the Musical?

    I watched the show and now I'm obsessed with it but I missed some of the things that they were saying because of their accents. So does anybody know any good/funny quotes from BE the Musical. The Broadway one, because I know some of the lines were changed. So far I have (not exact words):








    Mrs. Wilkinson: Now Billy, I've been thinking about the Royal Ballet School


    Billy: Aren't you a bit old, miss?





    Michael (wearing dress and talking about dance): They'll think you're mental.





    Michael (talking about cross dressing): Me dad does it all the time!





    Debbie: I'll show you my fanny, if you like.


    (long pause)


    Billy: Nah, I'm alright.





    Billy (reading letter): William Elliot.... is queer....?


    (long pause)


    Dad: ESQUIRE!!





    Mrs. Wilkinson: She must have been a very special woman.


    Billy: Nah, she was just me mum.





    Billy: Grandma, do you really not remember about Granddad?


    Grandma: Course I do! How could I forget about your granddad, Billy? We were married for 33 years.


    Billy: What was he like?


    Grandma: He was a complete... bastard.





    Billy: I don't want a childhood! I want to be a ballet dancer!





    Michael (talking about ballet): Do you get to wear a tutu?!





    Billy: Just because I like ballet, doesn't mean I'm a poof, you know.








    That's all I have and I know that it is already a lot but I want more so help me please!!!|||advertisementDad: Listen, have you noticed anything weird about our Billy lately?


    Tony: What are you after like, a list?





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Billy: Just because I like ballet doesn't mean I'm a poof, you know.





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Mrs. Wilkinson: Find a place on that bloody wall and focus on that spot. Then whip your head 'round and come back to that spot. Prepare!





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Mrs. Wilkinson: Right, Mr. Braithwaite, "The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow".


    [to herself]


    Mrs. Wilkinson: Fat chance!





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Billy: So what about your mother? Does she have sex?


    Debbie: No, she's unfulfilled. That's why she dances.


    Billy: She dances instead of sex? Your family's weird!





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Billy: I don't want a childhood. I want to be a ballet dancer.





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Billy: All right, all right, don't lose your blob!





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Billy: Miss, you don't fancy me do, do you?


    Mrs. Wilkinson: No, Billy. Funnily enough, I don't. Now piss off!


    Billy: [smiling] Piss off yourself.





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Dad: I'm bustin' my *** for those 50 pences and you're - look, from now on, you stay here and look out for your Nana. Got that? Good.


    Grandma: They used to say I could have been a professional dancer if I'd had the trainin'!


    Dad: WILL YOU SHUT UP?


    Billy: I hate you! You're a bastard!





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Grandma: I used to go to ballet.


    Billy: See?


    Dad: All right for your Nana, for girls. No, not for lads, Billy. Lads do football... or boxing... or wrestling. Not friggin' ballet.





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Mrs. Wilkinson: Please yourself, darlin'.





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Debbie: If you want, I'll show you me fanny.


    Billy: Nah, I'm all right.





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Mr. Braithwaite: You look like a right wanker to me, son.





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Mrs. Wilkinson: This'll sound strange, Billy, but for some time now I've been thinkin' of the Royal Ballet School.


    Billy: Aren't you a bit old, miss?


    Mrs. Wilkinson: No, not me... you! I'm the bloody teacher!





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Billy: I don't want to do your stupid audition. You only want me to do it for your own benefit!





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    [Billy falls to an opponent at boxing]


    George: Jesus Christ, Billy Elliot! You're a disgrace to them gloves, your father, and the traditions of this boxing hall!





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    [Billy is dancing while walking]


    Dad: Is that absolutely necessary? Walk normal!





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Tony: You're a ballet dancer, then let's be havin' it!





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Billy: So, what's it like, like?


    Dad: What's what like?


    Billy: London.


    Dad: I don't know, son. I never made it past Durham.


    Billy: Have you never been?


    Dad: Why would I want to go to London?


    Billy: It's the capital city!


    Dad: Well, there are no mines in London.


    Billy: Jesus Christ, is that all you think about?





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    [at the theatre]


    Tony: What the bloody hell are you doing here?


    Michael (Aged 25): I wouldn't have missed it for the world.





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Michael: Oi, dancing boy!


    [Billy runs to Michael]


    Dad: We'll miss the bus, Billy!


    Tony: Will you stop being an old ******* woman?





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Billy: Tony, do you ever think about death?


    Tony: **** off.





    --------------------------------------鈥?br>

    Mrs. Wilkinson: So. Do we get the pleasure of your company next week?


    Billy: It's just, I feel like a right sissy.


    Mrs. Wilkinson: Well don't act like one. 50p please. And if you're not coming again give us your shoes.


    Billy: [thinks] No, you're all right.


    Mrs. Wilkinson: Right.

    Im auditioning 4 billy elliot tom and i need to know wat there gonna do?

    i need to know wat kinda dance steps they will ask to seeIm auditioning 4 billy elliot tom and i need to know wat there gonna do?
    It totally depends on what the choreographer of the production has in mind. I don't think any of us can help you know the exact dance steps. Sorry! But break a leg at the audition!



    P.S. I'm very sorry if I'm wrong and that this show has specific dance steps that must be included in all productions of it. But usually, in many musicals, the choreographer makes their own steps for the actors to do, there's not universal choreography for them.
    well everyone different but for ours we had to learn a min. routine in about 15 min. the had to preform it. it was very fast and intense. it was to no business like show Business so it was fastIm auditioning 4 billy elliot tom and i need to know wat there gonna do?
    My friend Corrieanne Stein is Margot on Billy Elliot on Broadway, so I could help you a little. She told me that they taught you some of the dance steps before hand, and then auditioned to hear your voice, dance and acting skills, in case they want some other character for you.



    Hope you get the part!

  • Billy Elliot audition... Help.?

    I'm a 16 year old male auditioning for Billy Elliot the musical in April. I need to sort out a song and monologue but don't know where to start!

    I have a baritone voice (I'm not going for Billy himself) with a fairly wide range and would like a relatively emotional song (preferably from a musical). I was thinking 'Empty Chairs at Empty Tables'.

    And the monologue should be about a minute long- again showing lots of emotion but can be slightly humorous.

    Billy Elliot 2 ?

    hey

    does anyone know if there is going to be a billy elliot 2 because i went to billt elliot the musical in sydeny on tuesday 27th of may 08 with the school and i loved it and i wanted to know if there is going to be another one. If you know could you please let me know.

    thanks katelynBilly Elliot 2 ?
    if we are talking of the same billy elliot (guy who does ballet?)

    then probably not, cause that was made a while back, i remember seeing it when i was like 9.



    So unlikely...but i love that movie.

    Musicals? Billy Elliot or Lion King?

    (London, UK)

    Going to take my fiance to watch her first musical in August but should it be the lion king or Billy Elliot (or maybe something else?)

    ... We both get bored quite easily so its got to keep our attention and its got to be on for the 3rd August.



    THANKS!Musicals? Billy Elliot or Lion King?
    Well I'm the same as you and i do get very bored in a show if it isn't entertaining, i once walked out at the interval of Joseph and his tecnicoloured dreamcoat, it was that bad.



    I would say go see Billy Elliott, I have seen it twice and both were amazing. Its full of great entertaining scenes and the acting is amazing. There is a lot of swearing, but the comedy is so funny, its really worth going to see.

    You will feel joy, sadness, anger and much more when you see this show.



    With The Lion King, its boring and way too long, and i would say just watch the film as its much better.
    Billy Elliot...there is a lot of swearing in it.

    Lion King is awesome but,,,well I got a numb bumMusicals? Billy Elliot or Lion King?
    There are loads of good musicals on, so it depends what you're interested in. The Sound of Music has had brilliant reviews and could be a good option if your fiancee likes the film. Ditto Chicago - and of course Billy Elliot! I haven't actually seen that one yet, but everyone seems to enjoy it.



    The shows by Andrew Lloyd Webber are always very accessible for 1st timers, eg Phantom and Joseph (which is opening in July). Blood Brothers is also good in that respect.



    My favourite musical is Les Miserables - the music is a bit more complex than many shows, as is the story, but it's a great show and I'm sure you'd recognise some of the tunes.



    There's a complete list of what's showing at http://www.officiallondontheatre.co.uk/s鈥?/a>

    What do you think of this magazine article about Billy Elliot?

    I had to write a magazine article for my English class. what do you think of it?

    Billy Elliot in the Windy City!

    By: Drama Queen (my name is on my real paper but i don't want to put it on the internet)



    “Electricity sparks inside of me and I’m free, I’m free!” These are the words sung by 11 year old Billy in the climactic scene of Billy Elliot the Musical. Billy is now joining us in the windy city! After five years of Billy’s story being told on stage, it’s coming to join Broadway in Chicago! Billy’s story is one of great hope and faith, the musical’s past was very successful and it has a very bright future, especially in Chicago.

    This story is about an 11 year old boy named Billy who lives in Durham County in northern England, during the miners strike in the mid-80’s. Since his father’s a miner his family is poor, but Billy’s dad has enough money to send Billy to boxing. Once Billy gets there, he hates boxing. However, he stays late one day after boxing and finds himself in a dancing class. Billy finds something wonderful in dancing and loves it. He goes on and learns how to be a great dancer! Billy soon finds himself in a heap of trouble, his father doesn’t approve of him dancing. When Billy’s dad catches him dancing, Billy goes to his friend Michael, who teaches Billy its okay to be different! Once try outs for a dance academy come around, his dad approves of him dancing and lets him try out! Will Billy be accepted into the school? For the answer to that question you will have to see the show for yourself!

    In an interview with Hogan Fulton, who plays the title role of Billy on the west end of London, Hogan told me his favorite part of the show. “My favorite part of the show was” he started “Well, literally my favorite part was the electricity dance. I’ve rehearsed that dance so many times and been coached on it by so many people that I felt like I was doing it for everyone I knew. It’s such a meaningful part of the show and was the climax for me.” However, he also told me that the dance was his favorite part in the show, but “my favorite part about doing the show was growing up and meeting a ton of great people.”

    Before Billy was such a phenomenon in the theater community, it was a movie that wasn’t as big as the musical. Billy Elliot the movie was first shown in France on May 19, 2000. It came to selected American theaters in October of the same year. The original Billy who was in the movie was Jamie Bell. About 5 years later, Sir Elton John’s partner thought it would be a good idea to make it into a musical. Elton John agreed and wrote the music for the show in two weeks time! Elton John said “Of all the musicals I’ve done, because I was so close and I’ve been so involved in watching the film it inspired me really to write the musical!” Now Elton’s newest hit is “Electricity” which is the most known song from the show!

    After Elton John and his partner put all the finishing touches on the show it hit the stage in London May 2005. The actors who originated the role of Billy were James Lomas and Liam Mower, but the people who play Billy now on the west end are Charles Chapman, Oliver Gardner, Tom Holland, Hogan Fulton, and Rhys Yeoman. The success of Billy Elliot was so great it came to America! Billy hit the Broadway stage on November 13, 2008. Trent Kowalik, David Alvarez, and Kiril Kulish brought Billy to life on the Broadway stage. Billy Elliot won 10 Tony’s in 2009! Including best actor, where all 3 Billy’s got the Tony, and best musical! This musical was very successful to the theater community!

    Now Billy is dancing his way to the windy city! Elton John is very happy that Billy will be in Chicago. He says “I have very fond memories of Chicago!” Others in the cast and crew say Chicago is a “theater city!” The show started March 18th and is planned to end August 8th. However, if it is very successful, like Wicked, it may stay longer! The actors who are playing Billy are Tommy Batchelor, Giuseppe Bausilio and Cesar Corrales. The show is about 2 hours and 45 minutes, including intermission. Billy Elliot is showing at the Oriental Theater, 24 west Randolph Street, Chicago IL, 60601. Ticket prices range from $30-$100. For tickets go to ticket master.com or call (312) 977-1710 if you plan to go with a group of 15 or more!What do you think of this magazine article about Billy Elliot?
    Have you not seen the show yourself?



    It's a good start but it doesn't show the flavor of the show. I saw the show on broadway last winter. There's a ton of cursing, rough humor and that really strict irish catholic patriarchal mentality. You didn't really elaborate on how fantastic the dancing is and how hard it must have been for someone that age to dance like that. Sure everyone in a show practices a lot. That's life. But the dancing or the choreography could still be bad. Find a credible quote about how breathtaking the dancing is or how poignant some of the scene are between Billy and his Dad, or when the dead mom talks to Billy.



    It just sounds young. Like a young girl wrote it. Which is what I'm assuming you are. It's very well researched though. It's more facts though than painting a real picture about what the show is. By reading your article, I would have no idea that the show is what I saw.What do you think of this magazine article about Billy Elliot?
    "The actors who originated the role of Billy were James Lomas and Liam Mower, but the people who play Billy now on the west end are Charles Chapman, Oliver Gardner, Tom Holland, Hogan Fulton, and Rhys Yeoman."



    I think you have made a good start on your article. But there are some inaccuracies in your information that you should correct. The three original London Billys were James Lomas, Liam Mower and George Maguire. The current Billys on the West End are Oliver Gardner, Dean-Charles Chapman, Tom Holland and Rhys Yeomans. Fox Jackson-Keen just retired from the show on March 27, with 201 performances to his credit.



    You also might want to add that there have been five US boys to play Billy Elliot on the London stage. They are Colin Bates, Corey Snide, Trent Kowalik (who played Billy for six months in London before returning home to open the show on Broadway, and is the longest serving of all the Billys from all of the productions so far with well over 200 performances as Billy, not counting partial performances and additional appearances as the "Tall Boy"), Hogan Fulton, and Tanner Pflueger (who was brought over to NY for several weeks last spring to fill in on Broadway before returning to London to finish his year-long run as Billy in that show).



    Also, Chicago has FOUR Billys, not three. They are Tommy Batchelor, Cesar Corrales, Giuseppe Bausilio and J P Viernes.

    Billy elliot musical?

    In the billy elliot musical in london which boy who plays Billy is going to be on stage on february 17th 2007



    Also is it good?Billy elliot musical?
    Brilliant musical go see it. They have about 3 boys who are Billy Elliot, so rotate them. Always have one on standby during show in case there is a problem.

    Night I went Billy (which was Liam Gower, now left show) hurt his knee very badly in dance routine before half time, so one of the other Billy's came on for second act.

    Apparently choreography of the dancing for each Billy is different, as have different strengths and weakness re dancing styles. Liam Gower was good in ballet whereas the second Billy had a more gymnastic style of dancing.
    You could try ringing the theatre to find out, and yes - it is very good - quite a bit of bad language though if you are easily offended.Billy elliot musical?

    Billy elliot-michael dameski?

    I just found out that michael dameski's last performance for billy in billy elliot the 2nd national usa tour was tonight! I was VERYY grateful to see him perform, and he is absolutely amazing! I love him sooo much and is my idol!!!!%26lt;3 I was just wondering why its his last performance. Was he forced to stop or did he just resign? Thanks so much!Billy elliot-michael dameski?
    What was posted above is correct but I believe if he wished Michael could have performed on for a while yet, however he has been away from home and family for a long while and I believe this was a prime factor. Michael sure went out on top !Billy elliot-michael dameski?
    Basically he's outgrown the role. He is the only actor to play Billy in three separate productions of the show (Australia, Broadway, National Tour) and has been doing so for over two years. The character of Billy is an 11/12 year old boy. Michael recently turned 15. The role has a maximum height requirement and also the actor is to have an unbroken speaking/singing voice.

  • Musicals? Billy Elliot or Lion King?

    (London, UK)

    Going to take my fiance to watch her first musical in August but should it be the lion king or Billy Elliot (or maybe something else?)

    ... We both get bored quite easily so its got to keep our attention and its got to be on for the 3rd August.Musicals? Billy Elliot or Lion King?
    Billy Elliot is by far the most amazing musical I have ever seen, and believe me I have seen alot. It was beyond words, mesmerising. However I did go and see the original billys not their replacements and so dont know how good they are, alot hinges on the performance of one 12yr old boy.

    Lion King is fantastic too, so many bright colours and so much to watch and take in, the costumes are so incredible. Personally I would never get bored with either of them.

    If still in doubt, take her to Les Miserables - such good songs and a fantastic all rounder.

    If you want my personal opinion, take her to see Lion King, it's really lovely, a good first musical and neither of you will forget it!
    The Lion King all the way! Definately for a first musical! I saw it in NYC on Broadway as my first Broadway show and I was thrilled the whole time with the songs, costumes, scenery, etc!Musicals? Billy Elliot or Lion King?
    neither!! so here the complete magic of musical by taking her to the best musical ever....Les Miserables. She will not be disappointed .
    Billy Elliot for a good story line and "The Lion King" for the spectacle.
    Billy Elliot, it kept my husband enthralled and I had to drag him to see it as it was about 'boy dancers' !! He was very impressed.
    the lion king it is one of my favorite movies
    the lion king would be a good one to go see lots of bright colours and great special effects where as even tho billy elliot is good as well its a bit slower
    Billy Elliot is fantastic - but so is 'Wicked' - not so well known yet, so may be easier to get tickets too.
    I would take her to see Lion King or Mary Poppins. Disney musicals are a large spectacle in themselves. Having seen both, you can't really go wrong. For a first musical that will keep your attention, you can't go wrong. There is so much visual stimuli to keep your attention. Mary Poppins is a bit closer to a traditional musical given it's emphasis on dance and the strong ensemble, but Mary flies and Burt walked upside down. Lion King is visually amazing from the get go with the animals and the moving set.
    i went to see the lion king on monday 21st may, it is amazing!!! Definately kept my attention and i get bored easily too. Its not cheesy either like some musicals, more words than some and i dont even like musicals normally.

    Its at the lyceum near covent garden, few mins away. so easy to get to.
    neither the lion king bored me stupid and as for billy Elliot i feel as sleep during the film so i personally wouldn't waste my money go and see les mis, wicked or blood brothers all very different shows but the are all as good plus they my persoanl faves and i go to see a show every other weekend
    Lion King, its great.
    billy elliot, its amazing! all the boys are brilliant and the show is mindblowing!!

Is one the London cast and one the American cast, or are they the same cd with different covers? If you know, please tell me if there is a difference and which is which :] Thanks!Billy Elliot the Musical Cd?
    They have 3 different boys. Both for the American and London cast. They takes pictures of all of the boys who play billy and put it on the CD's.

    That production is already out on tour (it's currently in Chicago) and so it's already cast. They may be looking for replacement cast members at some point; your best bet is to keep an eye on the Actors Equity website for casting announcements: http://www.actorsequity.org/CastingCall/鈥?/a>

    Billy Elliot miners strike?

    In the movie Billy Elliot, there is a mining strike, as i have understood, and in one scene the father gives up the strike and gets on the bus. Why does Billy's brother get all emotional and starts crying and hugging the father and says "He's just a kid. You can't go, etc.?" I've been wondering that for a while and haven't quite understood.

    Thankful for answers!Billy Elliot miners strike?
    Basically Billy's father needed the money to send Billy to London. Although Billy's father and his brother Tony are very much against becoming "scabs" (that is those who cross the picket line and decide to work for the mining company despite the strike). Billy's father realizes that Billy's gift may be his son's chance to escape the mining life.

    As he says:
    Billy's father: "It's for wee Billy! He might be a f*****g genius, for all we know."

    Tony replies that Billy is just a kid and that being a kid how could he rally know what he wants to do with his life and that does not warrant his father throwing away all that they are trying to achieve with the strike.
    Because the people who go to work everyday and get paid are the reason why the minors are still out of work.... Billy's father was very anti crossing the picket line and the brother was telling the father not to make the sacrifice and not to go to work because not only will he be helping the people running the mine he will be betraying his friends ...... I studied this movie in school and this was my understanding of it hope it helped ...Billy Elliot miners strike?
    As an addition to the above answer, I think Billy's dad decided to cross the picket line so that he could make money to help pay for Billy's dance school. The brother was trying to say he didn't think dance tuition was a good reason to scab because Billy was too young to know what he wanted to do with his life.
    Billy's father decided to become what is termed "A Scab". It is a worker who defies a union ban on working at a site and crosses the line of picketing strikers to work for the lower wages and worse conditions which the strikers are fighting against having introduced. And the mass sackings they had planned as Thatcher oversaw the "Rationalisation" of the mining industry. She destroyed it in fact. And two generations of the British working classes along with it. Tradesmen and labourers. Old men and young were abandoned on the scap heap of "Economic Reform" . Without fair payment of Superannuation or Redundancy Benefits, without any plan to retrain or re-employ them as she changed the laws which governed industry and commerce right out from under them.



    A scab is, in the minds and hearts of Unionists everywhere, the lowest form of life. It was the greatest shame one could bring upon a family's name. That they were being supported by a scab. "Don't do it to the boy" was a plea from the heart. That child would have been made a pariah. He would not have had a friend left in that town. They were fighting for their very survival as a community. As families. As people with any kind of a future at all outside the Welfare queue and sporadic casual labouring.



    And they lost that battle. Decisively. It is to this day an incredibly emotive issue with those of us who were old enough to watch the systematic destruction of the way of life of the very people whose labour and lives had brought forth the mineral wealth from the ground that the multinational mining corporations grasped all to themselves. And yet too young to go into the streets and fight beside them. We saw it on the news. Our fathers and Uncles ridden down by horses. We heard the cracks of the battens fall upon their skulls and we shrank from the sight of Riot Squad boots smashing ribs and cheekbones as they fell.



    Union men and women went over from Australia to join them on the picket lines. Unionists from all over the world did the same. For they knew as they watched the terrible swathe that the Police lines, armed with clubs with shields and mace, cut through those English miners, that the corporate lackeys at home would be after our workers soon enough.



    They were battling to the last for what they had earned as their right generations before...to work all their lives with pride in the fact that they could support their families, no matter how hard was the graft they had to endure in order to do so.



    And any man who had once stood beside them only to surrender and abandon that fight was reviled as a traitor.

    No, he is not gay.

    He was just being nice to his friend.



    In the film, he tells his friend that "he isn't a poof."

    I dont really get it, why were all the people in the movie throwing stuff at the bus etc, why were they so angry? why were they on strike? (In billy elliot btw).

    and if anyone has a link to billy elliot the movie id be very grateful. I cant get to the video store and assignment due tommorow X.X.

    ThanksBilly Elliot miners strike?
    they were angry at the miners who went to work because the rest of them were on strike, and as long as someone was getting the job done, they wouldn't succeed in getting more money.

    do you mean to watch the movie or just get info on it.

    for info: imdb.com (just search Billy Elliot)

    to watch the movie try watch-movies.net or search it on youtube.com

    What is the turn called at the very end of "electricity" from billy elliot? is it hard for beginners to learn?

    Those are called "a la seconde turns." It is a male turn in ballet but girls do it in jazz, lyrical and competition dance. It is not a beginner's turn. It is not hard to do, but it is hard to do well with control and proper form.What is the turn called at the very end of "electricity" from billy elliot? is it hard for beginners to learn?
    Its a very helpful question.

    At the end of Billy Elliot he is performing the Nutcracker in an all male troop.What troop might that be?

    Years ago I saw a troop of all male ballet dancers dressed in sheep or rams leggings performing Swan Lake. I again I saw this ar the ending of a movie Billy Elliot. I don't think it is the Ballet Trocaderos? They seem more comedy driven.At the end of Billy Elliot he is performing the Nutcracker in an all male troop.What troop might that be?
    That's Matthew Bourne's production of Swan Lake.

    I'm not sure, but on IMDB.com it says something about "Adventures in Motion Pictures".. Idk.. I absolutely LOVE Billy Elliot though! Just listening to the Swan Lake music after seeing this movie totally moves me, I loove it! That leap he does at the end! Ooh man! Amazing!At the end of Billy Elliot he is performing the Nutcracker in an all male troop.What troop might that be?
    It's about Billy, forget the rest.

    Can anyone tell me the email addy for Lochlan Denholm? He's the guy in Billy Elliot?

    Sorry but I couldn't find it. But once Billy Elliot starts he might get a website and you can possibly contact him there. Or find out what dance studio he used to attend? Perhaps they can help you out there.





    Sorry I couldn't help anymore :(

  • Billy Elliot or Jersey Boys?

    I'm going to see a play for my 16th birthday, but I'm not sure which one to choose, it's between Billy Elliot and Jersey Boys, has anyone seen these, and have an opinion that'll help me out?



    I read reviews already, but I just wanna get a few more views on it before i decide.



    Thanks in advance.Billy Elliot or Jersey Boys?
    I'm a Broadway fanatic, though I haven't seen either of these (yet),

    but it's slightly easier to get tickets for "Billy Elliott" than it is for

    "Jersey Boys". They're both great shows, though, so you can't go wrong, no matter what you see.

    Ballet billy elliot?

    since watching billy elliot a few months ago i've decided to start ballet.The more i read about it it says how many years it takes to go on pointe and how long it takes to be brilliant at ballet.The movie is highly realistic in every other way.Does it really take all that time because Billy learnt it in a few months...Ballet billy elliot?
    spose it depends if a)if your fit enough-b)if you have the dedication/time-c)how badly you want to be good at it,but also in reality if you are constant in all these things and 'have the knack'(to coin a phrase)...i reckon its possible to learn in a year or two...they probly shortened the time span on the film
    The film is about a boy who goes through a lot of pressure growing up and trying to discover himself. He finds a way to express his passion and if you are looking for a similar way to express passion then you could find the key to this art rather quickly. Depending on the amount of effort you put in, the ammount of passion you feel the need to express and the amount of dedication you are going to put in you will find your technique improves.Ballet billy elliot?
    its nonsense when you're studying ballet in only few months.

    i first learn ballet 6months ago (because suddenly i felt i wanna pursue dance major for college) and im in grade5 now, thats because i go on private lesson and i practice almost everyday. and the most important factor is i have been figure skating since i was 7 so it helped my ballet A LOT.
    No -one can get that good in a couple of months, do you know It takes two years for the stage conpanies to make a billie elliot experienced or not, for braodway. and they have practice nearly every day, How fast you go depends on what dance type you take up-ISTD, RAD, UTD etc. RAD normally gets people going quite fast.
    i did dancein from the age of about 6/ 7 and gav e up a couple of years ago if you have the passion and time to do it u will practise as much as u can all the exercise your dance teachers do with you are to strenghten your muscles and joints i wasnt allowed on points untill my dance teach told me i could as my ankles and legs by that time were strong enough to take the wait. as for istd and rad and that it depends on what exam groupe your dance school are with.
    I'm sorry to say that it takes MANY years to become brilliant at ballet though I wish it was that easy to pick things up! My friend has been doing it for about 8 years and my other friend for 5 and still they have not perfected it.
    it depends how committed you are!!!



    try your best just remember billy is a fictionall character.



    but with all the dedication in the world i'm sure you will be amazing!!!



    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Billy had the option of boxing or ballet in a mining area , what would you choose and pick it up fast and get out .
    Some kids learn very quickly. In ballet, it does tend to be the boys who discover a sudden talent.
    gotta learn to separate reality from fiction, sweetheart.
    it's only a movie...

    In the movie Billy Elliot, why does Billy punch the boy towards the end?

    Billy nervously finishes the audition with a sinking feeling that he did not do well. As he packs his gear, he lets that emotion overwhelm him, and he punches another auditioner in the face. It was unprovoked.

    im seeing it this weekend and im really excited...is it any good?Has anybody seen billy elliot on broadway?
    I saw it in Australia (the production is the same as the West End and Broadway productions) and I loved it. The music is stunning, the dance was outstanding and it was beautifully acted. It's a fantastic show, enjoy it!

    Why in Billy Elliot do the 'ballet girls'?

    Are asked to have 'very good tap' and 'good ballet'.Wouldn't they need to be better at ballet than tap?(rather than the other way round)Why in Billy Elliot do the 'ballet girls'?
    maybe they needed to be well-rounded dancers.

    or to challenge them and take ballet off the mind for a while so that they can come back and be great at ballet.



    who knows?

    hope i helped! :D

    How to become flexible again.....(billy elliot!)?

    ok, the other week i saw Billy elliot and it was amazing! they could all do splits and that thing where you turn your head quickly when 'spinning' and that thing where you do an arabesque type thing but hold leg almost over your head.



    i used to be able to do splits etc but quit dancing , i want to start again at home ' no clubs at mo!' is there any good sites to teach you? also how to do the things mentioned above and roughly how long should it take to be able to do the splits again ?





    thanks xxHow to become flexible again.....(billy elliot!)?
    Unfortunately, once you turn 13, it is extremely hard to get you splits down. It usually takes about as long as a year. But since you've had them down before, it won't take you as long once your muscles recognize what they used to do all the time. It will take about eight months. Probably more for middle splits. And surprisingly, there's no special trick or instructions to get your split down. Just keep practicing it everyday, and you'll get it!How to become flexible again.....(billy elliot!)?
    I was in the same position you're in. I had done dance before, along with cheer and gymnastics, but then quit it all when my life got to hectic to handle. So, at age 14 I started lyrical dance again, along with poms. It was really hard to do, but I just started stretching and practicing my splits every night. For my splits, I would increase the amount of time that I would hold them for, every day. For example, the first day I started out with 10 sec, then 20, then 30, then 40 then 50 then 60, etc. Just now, am I finally getting them down. But I'm still not all the way there yet. Just keep doing it everyday to get it down.

    ~Hope that helps!! :)

    Which "Billy Elliot" is performing?

    I'm going back to New York this weekend, and I'm seeing "Billy Elliot: The Musical" on Broadway.

    I was wondering which "Billy" is performing on February 26? The one at 2:00pm, and the one at 7:30pm. Does anyone know which one, or at least where I could find out? I know that there are 3 different "Billy"'s.

    Thanks.

    Cheers.Which "Billy Elliot" is performing?
    Well, according to the official website, the New York production currently has four Billy Elliots. What they usually do with multiple castings is to make the annoucement which one is playing "Billy" at the time of the performarnce, if anything so they don't have to print multiple programs for each different performance. Besides, if one of the boys became ill or injured, another one might take his place. You can try calling the theater the day of the performance to find out. The website is below. I just took a quick look but didn't spot anything specifically on who was doing what performance and when--I might have missed it. At any rate, theater contact information should be on the website.



    http://www.billyelliotbroadway.com/Which "Billy Elliot" is performing?
    Apparently you don't know how CHILDREN are chosed for any particular performance. There are FOUR actors READY TO PLAY THE PART and the one who will be in THAT PERFORMANCE is chosen at CURTAIN TIME.. so there is NO WAY your question can be answered because even the ACTORS could not tell you who will be performing when you see it.

    This is the way it's always done. In ANNIE there are THREE 'Annies' ready to perform at any time and, since an Annie is IMMEDIATELY OFF THE SHOW when she has a PERIOD.. there have been instances where the Actress who played Annie in the show was PULLED for the Curtain calls when her PERIOD STARTED during the show.
