I had wanted to see this show for a long time. Was I disappointed, certainly not. There were many 'characters' that didn't necessarily have a starring role e.g. the tall gangly legged dancing girl - she played an absolutely comic role which was hillarious. The actors who played Billy and his young friend, who appeared to really love dressing up... More

This is a show where you could return time after time. Nothing like the film this is without doubt one of the best productions in London. From start to finish it has has you stuck firmly to your seat. The actors are excellent and dedicated in their passion. A must see for anyone. More

I watched The Iron Lady on the way over to London, so when I saw Billy Elliott, it was reliving the experience from the Labour side. So what if the story is predictable? It's a Musical! The boy playing Billy was excellent, lots of dancing & big production numbers. If you want to experience a real British production during your... More

Saw this show with a new "Billy" A first class performance !! The whole cast were amazing. Yes there is swearing, but I think some people walk around with their fingers plugging their ears! This is real life, no holds barred. Music was brilliant. Do go and see you wont be disappointed ! More

Kids that perform on stage are many times impressive and always charming. The two lead boys, are in this category. Otherwise the performances are ok or average. What this musical misses is an abundance of good music. There are two melodies that pleases the ear, but otherwise disappointing, especially acknowledging that Elton John has been involved. Somehow I felt that... More

I took my 16 year old daughter to see this show and had a brilliant time. Yes the children do swear in the performance but art mirrors life. The acting, singing and dancing were all first rate; couldn't fault anything about our experience. More
