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.

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.

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.
