Billy Elliot: The Musical is a musical based on the 2000 film of the same name. The music is by Elton John, and the book and lyrics are by Lee Hall, who wrote the film's screenplay. The plot revolves around Billy, a motherless British boy who begins taking ballet lessons. The story of his personal struggle and fulfilment are balanced against a counter-story of family and community strife caused by the 1984–85 UK miners' strike in County Durham, in North East England. Hall's screenplay was inspired in part by A. J. Cronin's 1935 novel about a miners' strike, The Stars Look Down, to which the musical's opening song pays homage.^[1]

The musical premiered at the Victoria Palace Theatre in London's West End in 2005 and was nominated for nine Laurence Olivier Awards, winning four, including Best New Musical. The production ran through April 2016.^[2] Its success led to productions in Australia, Broadway, and numerous other countries. In New York, it won ten Tony Awards and ten Drama Desk Awards, including, in each case, Best Musical. It has also won numerous awards in Australia including a record-tying seven Helpmann Awards.

A live recording of the musical was released on DVD and Blu-ray on 24 November 2014 in the United Kingdom. Billy Elliot was one of eight UK musicals commemorated on Royal Mail stamps, issued in February 2011.^[3]

Productions[edit]

Original London production[edit]

The premiere of the musical had been planned at the Tyne Theatre in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. but this was abandoned due to financial problems of the Tyne Theatre's operator and the production's growing budget.^[4]

The musical premiered in the West End at the Victoria Palace Theatre, opening in previews on 31 March 2005 and officially on 11 May 2005. It closed on 9 April 2016, when the theatre closed for refurbishment, after 4,600 performances.^[2][5] The show reportedly cost £5.5 million to produce (the original film version cost $5 million).^[6] The producers were Working Title Films, Old Vic Productions Plc and David Furnish. It was directed by Stephen Daldry and choreographed by Peter Darling, as was the original film. Liam Mower, James Lomas and George Maguire were the original actors who alternated in the title role, and the supporting cast included Haydn Gwynne as Mrs. Wilkinson and Tim Healy as Billy's father. The sets were designed by Ian MacNeil, the costumes by Nicky Gillibrand, lighting was by Rick Fisher, and sound by Paul Arditti.

The musical received favourable reviews: the Daily Telegraph's Charles Spencer called it 'the greatest British musical I have ever seen', and The Daily Mail thought it 'a theatrical masterpiece'.^[7] It won four Laurence Olivier Awards: Best New Musical, Best Actor (awarded jointly to James Lomas, George Maguire and Liam Mower, the boys who played Billy), Best Sound design and Best Choreographer. It also won the Evening Standard Theatre Award as well as the Critics Circle Award and the Theatregoers Choice Award, all for Best Musical.^[8]

The original cast album was released on 10 January 2006. On 12 May 2006, the three original Billys appeared together in a performance of the musical to celebrate its first anniversary. The three rotated the role during the performance and were joined at the end by Elton John.^{[citation needed]} In 2013, the show won another Olivier Award, the BBC Radio 2 Audience Award (voted for by theatre goers), after many years of being finalists for the award.^[9] After Margaret Thatcherdied in 2013, according to director Stephen Daldry, the audience were given the choice to decide whether the song 'Merry Christmas, Maggie Thatcher' would be included in the performance that day, since the lyrics include the sentence: 'We all celebrate today 'cause it's one day closer to your death'. As only three audience members voted against it, the performance went ahead as usual.^[10][11] On 3 July 2015, 12-year-old Nat Sweeney from Birmingham became the 41st actor to play the role of Billy, making him the 100th to play the role worldwide.^[12]

Billy Elliot the Musical Live[edit]

In June 2014, it was announced that the musical would be screened and broadcast live to cinemas around the UK and the world.^[13] On 28 September, the matinee of the musical was broadcast as it was being filmed at the Victoria Palace Theatre to cinemas around the UK and other countries, with further encore screenings of that same performance on other dates. Billy was played by Elliott Hanna. Liam Mower, one of the three actors who originated the title role, returned to play the role of Older Billy.^[14] In addition, 25 past and present actors to have played the title role on the West End performed a specially-choreographed dance number at the finale. The live broadcast topped the UK and Ireland box office the weekend it was broadcast, a first for an event cinema release, beating The Equalizer with £1.9m.^[15] This performance was released on DVD and Blu-ray on 24 November 2014 in the United Kingdom. This cast includes Elliott Hanna in the title role with Ruthie Henshall as Mrs. Wilkinson, Deka Walmsley as Billy’s dad, Chris Grahamson as Tony and Ann Emery as Grandma.^[16] Further cast included Claudia Bradley as Dead Mam, Howard Crossley as George, David Muscatt as Mr Braithwaite, Alan Mehdizadeh as Big Davey, Liam Mower as Older Billy and David Stoller as Posh Dad.

Billy Youth Theatre[edit]

Billy Youth Theatre^[17] was a countrywide scheme as part of which participating schools and youth groups were given the opportunity to stage their own production of the musical. Billy Elliot writer Lee Hall, together with Martin Koch (Musical Supervision and Orchestrations), adapted their original script and orchestrations to produce a shortened version of the show exclusively for groups staging local productions as part of Billy Youth Theatre.

Australian Tours[edit]

Original Australian Tour[edit]

The musical opened at Sydney's Capitol Theatre on 13 November 2007, directed by Daldry in association with Julian Webber, and choreographed by Darling.^[18] Rhys Kosakowski, Lochlan Denholm, Rarmian Newton, and Nick Twiney alternated in the title role. The production earned good notices, and in January 2008 it won Best Musical at the 2008 Sydney Theatre Awards.^[19] The show also won seven Helpmann Awards, including the awards for Best Musical, Best Direction, Best Choreography, Best Female Actor (Genevieve Lemon as Mrs. Wilkinson) and Best Male Actor, awarded jointly to the four boys who played Billy Elliot.^[20] The production concluded in Sydney on 9 November 2008 with all eight Sydney Billys in the finale.

The Sydney production transferred to Melbourne's Her Majesty's Theatre, opening on 13 December 2008.^[21] The Melbourne production closed on 14 June 2009 after a successful run.^[22]

10th Anniversary Australian Tour (2019)[edit]

On 10 April 2017 it was announced that Billy Elliot would open at Sydney's Lyric Theatre in October 2019. The production will then transfer to Melbourne in February 2020, followed by Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide where it will close in 2020.^[23] The adult cast will feature Kelley Abbey as Mrs Wilkinson, alongside Justin Smith as Billy's dad. The child cast is yet to be announced.

Original Broadway production[edit]

The Broadway production opened at the Imperial Theatre on 1 October 2008 in previews, and officially on 13 November 2008.^[24] The London production's creative team directed and designed the Broadway production.^[8] The title role was rotated among three young actors, David Álvarez, Kiril Kulish, Trent Kowalik, the last of whom had previously played the role in London.^[25] The supporting cast included Haydn Gwynne, reprising her role of Mrs. Wilkinson from the London production, and Gregory Jbara as Billy's father.

The production received rave reviews:^[26]Time called it a 'triumph'; critic Liz Smith termed it 'breathtakingly brilliant' and 'absolutely, unequivocally awesome'; the Daily News said it was 'so exhilarating that at times you feel like leaping';^[27] the New York Post said it was 'almost like being in love' and termed it 'amusing, perfect and passionate' and 'the best show you will ever see'; and the Los Angeles Times called it a 'global theatrical phenomenon'.^[28] It has also been very financially successful, with $20 million taken in advance ticket sales.^[26] The production received fifteen Tony Award nominations, tying with The Producers for the most nominations ever received by a Broadway show,^[29] and winning ten. The original three boys in the lead role jointly won a Tony Award for Best Leading Actor in a Musical. The production sold strongly and recouped its original investment of $18 million in 14 months.^[30] The Broadway production closed on 8 January 2012 following 40 previews and 1,312 regular performances.^[31]

Touring productions[edit]

First US National Tour[edit]

Although considered to be the First US National Tour, the show did not tour as a usual touring production would, with longer engagements in Chicago and Toronto.

Chicago (2010)[edit]

The musical opened in Chicago on 18 March 2010 in previews, officially on 11 April, at the Ford Center for the Performing Arts Oriental Theatre for an extended run. This is the start of the North American multi-city tour.^[32] According to producer Eric Fellner, however, the musical 'will be here until such time as Chicago says 'go away'. ... We can only do one production at once,' and other North American cities will have to wait until the Chicago production runs its course.^[33]Emily Skinner plays Mrs. Wilkinson, and the cast featured Tommy Batchelor, Giuseppe Bausilio, Cesar Corrales and J.P. Viernes alternating as Billy, with Armand Schultz as Billy’s Dad, Cynthia Darlow as grandma, Patrick Mulvey as Tony and Jim Ortlieb as George.^[34] The production closed early on 28 November 2010 and transferred to Toronto. The show ran for 37 weeks and 288 performances.^[35]

The production had been slated to run through July 2010 but was extended to the middle of January 2011, by popular demand. By September, however, ticket sales were growing bleak. According to the Chicago Tribune, 'Weekday attendance had been especially poor in recent weeks, despite heavily discounted tickets. Audience members at the Oriental Theatre in the Loop had reported an almost-empty balcony at some shows, and weekday attendance had been as low as 900 or so people. December sales are typically strong, so the decision to close then indicated that things were not expected to pick up.' The show closed 'early' in November 2010.^[36]

Toronto (2011)[edit]

The Canadian premiere of the show opened on 1 February 2011 at the Canon Theatre in Toronto. Kate Hennig played Mrs. Wilkinson, Cesar Corrales, J.P.Viernes, Marcus Pei and Myles Erlick as Billy, Armand Schultz as Billy’s dad, Cynthia Darlow as grandma, Patrick Mulvey as Tony and Jim Ortlieb as George. It was originally scheduled for 28 January 2011.^[37][38][39]

The show received mostly glowing reviews. The most critical review was one published in the National Post: 'The signal achievement of Billy Elliot The Musical is to be even phonier than the movie it's based on.'^[40] The show was extended, due to packed audiences for an additional three months.

Second US National Tour[edit]

A second tour opened at the Durham Performing Arts Center in Durham, North Carolina on 30 October 2010. Although this is the first production of the musical to tour the United States in a 'touring' manner, this is still considered to be the Second National Tour.^[41]

The title role was shared by Giuseppe Bausilio, Michael Dameski, Kylend Hetherington, Lex Ishimoto, and Daniel Russell. The cast also included Faith Prince as Mrs. Wilkinson, Rich Hebert as Billy's father, Patti Perkins as Grandma, Jeff Kready as Tony, and Joel Blum as George^[42]

The Second National Tour went on hiatus in August 2011. It re-opened in November of the same year under a new production company, and with previous cast members from the second national tour as well as the Toronto cast. Notable cast replacement included Ben Cook as Billy. The tour went on hiatus after playing its final performance in North America at Hartford, Connecticut on 23 June 2013, before proceeding to São Paulo, Brazil.

While the Second National Tour received much praise from audiences and critics, BroadwayWorld.com gave the show a rare mixed review, calling Stephen Daldry's direction 'muddy and over-complicated,' Elton John's music 'dull,' and Ian MacNeil's set 'hideous, over-designed, and unnecessarily complex.'^[43]

After the tour's hiatus, it transferred to Brazil for a limited engagement and opened on 2 August 2013 at the Credicard Hall in São Paulo. It was the first time the tour played in a Latin American country and was the first musical to take its international tour to Brazil since Cats in 2006.^[44] The tour played its final performance on 18 August with Ty Forhan, Drew Minard and Mitchell Tobin as the last to share the title role.^[45]

Other productions[edit]

The first non-English language production of the musical opened in Seoul on 10 August 2010 in previews and officially on 14 August at the LG Arts Center. It originally starred Jin-Ho Jung, Ji-Myeong Lee, Sunu Lim, and Se-Yong Kim in the title role of Billy with Junhyung Kim later joining the cast in January 2011.^[46][47] Supporting cast included Young-joo Chung as Mrs. Wilkinson, Won-hee Cho as Billy's father, and Jae-hyung Lim as Tony. This production closed on 27 February 2011.^[48]

The first Hungarian language production of the musical—a non-replica staging—debuted on 29 July 2016 at the Hungarian State Opera House in Budapest, directed by Tamás Szirtes and choreographed by Ákos Tihanyi. The production was originally intended for the Erkel Theatre which has more seats but was relocated after the ticket sales started. Hungarian translation is by István Puller and Ferenc Bárány.^[55] It was the first musical ever to be performed at the Opera House.^[56] The production was later moved to Erkel Theatre where it was originally intended. In this production, the role of Michael—the only identifiably homosexual character in the original—is significantly reduced, and his homosexuality is not made explicit.^[57] Despite this, on 1 June 2018, ahead of the production's third summer season, conservative Hungarian newspaper Magyar Idők published an article calling the musical 'gay propaganda', and accused it of corrupting children and turning them gay. Ticket sales fell in response to the article, and 15 performances had to be cancelled (29 other performances went ahead as planned).^[58][59][60] It was announced shortly after that the cancelled performances would be made up for during the final season of production in 2019.^[61][62]

Social and Cultural Issues[edit]

Subversion of Gender Roles[edit]

The production is notable in its empowering promotion of the subversion of traditional gender roles, promoting acceptance and open-mindedness; both implicitly in the show’s decision to represent drag and the challenging of traditional masculinity in a positive light, and explicitly, in the shows lyrics and repeated core message of the value of ‘expressing yourself’ and embracing one’s ‘individuality.’ Billy’s subversion of traditional masculine 'gender performativity'^[63] is highlighted against the contrast of Durham’s extremely masculine working-class society. With this focus, Billy Elliot has the position of being “the first mainstream British entertainment to directly interrogate homophobic prejudice as a function of patriarchal society.”^[64] With the impact of its empowering message of acceptance entering public discourse and education campaigns^[17] thanks to the prominence and financial success of the show.

Empowering the Working Class[edit]

Within the social context of the 1984-85 miner's strike, Billy Elliot's personal struggle to continue dancing is contrasted powerfully to choreographed violence due to the strike. The repetition of 'solidarity forever' is an empowering musical motif to represent the perceived power of the miners union.^[65] The message of strength in unity is assisted by emotive and colloquial lyrics, producing audience affect as the empowered everyday working men fight ardently against the British government.^[66] However the eventual fall of the worker's strike suggests that class differences are inevitable, yet there remains an allusion to strength despite this loss of power.^[67] Ultimately Billy's passion for dance remains empowering enough to allow his movement to a middle class education.

Synopsis[edit]

Act I[edit]

In County Durham, the 1984–85 coal miners' strike is just beginning ('The Stars Look Down'). Motherless eleven-year-old Billy stays behind after his boxing class to give keys to Mrs. Wilkinson, who runs a ballet class. The class is all girls, but Billy is attracted to the grace of the dance ('Shine'). At first, Billy's interest in dance is easily concealed from his family, as the only person home at the time is his grandmother. She reveals to Billy the abuse she suffered at the hands of her late husband, but that she found great joy in dance ('Grandma's Song').

While his father Jackie, brother Tony and neighbours are on strike and clash with riot police, Billy takes dance lessons, keeping it a secret from his family ('Solidarity'). During the number, the violent reality of the strike is contrasted with the peaceful practise of ballet.

Eventually, Jackie discovers Billy in the ballet class and forbids him from attending the lessons. Mrs. Wilkinson, who recognizes Billy's potential, privately suggests that he should audition for the Royal Ballet School in London. To prepare for the audition, she offers him free private lessons. Billy is not sure what he wants to do, so he visits his best friend Michael for advice. He finds Michael wearing a dress. Michael persuades Billy to have fun with him by dressing up in woman's clothing, rejecting the restrictive inhibitions of their working class community ('Expressing Yourself').

Arriving for his first private ballet lesson, Billy brings things to inspire a special dance for the audition ('Dear Billy (Mum's Letter)'). Through his lessons from Mrs. Wilkinson, he develops an impressive routine for his audition ('Born to Boogie'), as he forms a close bond with her. Mrs. Wilkinson's daughter Debbie tries to discourage Billy from auditioning because she has a crush on him.

Meanwhile, Jackie and Tony are engaged in daily battles with riot police that often turn bloody. They struggle to support the family with very little in strike and union pay, a difficult task that goes on for nearly a year.

When the day of the Royal Ballet School audition comes, the police come through the village, injuring Tony. When Billy fails to meet Mrs. Wilkinson at the union hall to leave for the audition, she goes to the Elliot home. There, Billy's family and some members of the community are gathered. She reveals that she has been teaching Billy ballet in preparation for this audition. The news upsets Jackie and Tony, who argue with Mrs. Wilkinson. Tony tries to force Billy to dance on the table in front of everyone. Suddenly the police approach and, as everyone escapes, Billy calls out to his father saying that his mother would have let him dance, to which Jackie says, 'Your Mam's dead!'. Billy goes into a rage ('Angry Dance'), and for nearly a year, stays away from anything related to ballet.

Act II[edit]

Six months later at the miner's annual Christmas show, the children put on a show disparaging Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, who is seen as the antagonist by the coal miners ('Merry Christmas, Maggie Thatcher'). Billy's father gets drunk and sings an old folk song that elicits memories of his deceased wife and the usually stoic man leaves in tears ('Deep Into the Ground'). Left alone with Billy in the Community Centre, Michael reveals he has feelings for him, but Billy explains that the fact that he likes ballet does not mean that he is gay. Michael gives him a kiss on the cheek. Michael tries to get Billy to show him some dancing, but Billy is sad and just tells him to leave.

Michael departs, but leaves a music player running. Billy feels like dancing for the first time since the day of the aborted audition and dances while dreaming of being a grown-up dancer ('Swan Lake'). Unknown to Billy, his father arrives and watches him dance. Overcome with emotion, Jackie goes to Mrs. Wilkinson’s house to discuss Billy’s prospects as a dancer. She confirms Billy's talent, but is not sure whether or not he would get into the Royal Ballet School after missing the audition. Mrs. Wilkinson offers to help pay for the trip to London for the next audition, but Jackie refuses. He leaves questioning his working-class pride and the future mining has for his boys.

Jackie decides the only way to help Billy is to return to work. When Tony sees his father cross the picket line, he becomes infuriated and the two argue over what is more important: unity of the miners or helping Billy achieve his dream ('He Could Be A Star'). The argument eventually comes to blows and Billy is hit accidentally. One of the miners chastises them for fighting and says that the important thing is looking after the child. One by one, the miners give money to help pay for the trip to the audition, but Billy still does not have enough for the bus fare to London. A strike-breaker arrives and offers him hundreds of pounds. An enraged Tony attempts to shun his donation, but no one else speaks up in his support. Now drained of hope, Tony dismally ponders whether there's a point for anything anymore, and runs off.

Billy and his father arrive at the Royal Ballet School for the audition. While Jackie waits outside, an upper-crust Londoner highlights the contrast between the Elliots and the families of the other applicants. Jackie meets a dancer with a thick Northern accent. The dancer confesses that his father does not support his ballet career. He sharply advises Jackie to 'get behind' his boy. 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 dancer who was trying to comfort him. The audition committee reminds Billy of the strict standards of the school. They have received an enthusiastic letter from Mrs. Wilkinson explaining Billy's background and situation, and they ask him to describe what it feels like when he dances. Billy responds with a heartfelt declaration of his passion ('Electricity').

Back in Durham, the Elliots resume life, but times are tough and the miners are running a soup kitchen to ensure everyone is fed. Eventually, Billy receives a letter from the school and, overwhelmed and fearful, knowing that it heralds the end of the life he has known, informs his family that he wasn't accepted. Tony retrieves the letter from the waste bin and discovers that his brother was accepted. At the same time, the miners' union has caved in; they lost the strike. Billy visits Mrs. Wilkinson at the dance class to thank her for everything she did to help him. Debbie is sad that Billy will be leaving.

Billy packs his things for the trip to the school and says goodbye to the soon to be unemployed miners who are returning unhappily to work ('Once We Were Kings'). Billy says goodbye to his dead mother, who often visits him in his imagination ('Dear Billy (Billy's Reply)'). Billy breaks the fourth wall and begins to walk down the center aisle before Michael stops him to say goodbye. Billy drops his suitcase and runs onto the stage to give Michael a kiss on the cheek. Billy then walks back off stage, retrieves his suitcase and walks out to his future alone.

The entire cast comes out on stage and calls Billy back to celebrate the bright future ahead of him ('Finale').
