This is Billy Elliot, the spectacular show with the heart, humor and passion to be named Broadway's Tony-winning Best Musical and Time Magazine's "Best Musical of the Decade!"

Based on the international smash-hit film, Billy Elliot is brought to life by a phenomenal cast of 50 and the Tony Award-winning creative team - director Stephen Daldry, choreographer Peter Darling and writer Lee Hall - along with music legend Elton John, who has written what the New York Post calls "his best score yet!"
