Finding Billy, a new documentary on the casting of the Broadway musical Billy Elliot will debut on WNET/Channel 13 on Monday, December 1 at 8pm.
The program will offer a behind-the-scenes look at the nationwide search for the three actors who play the lead role in Billy Elliot the Musical on Broadway. During the broadcast, stars David Alvarez, Trent Kowalik, Kiril Kulish (who share the title role) and Carole Shelley (who plays Grandma) will be present in the Thirteen studio to talk about the show.
