-- Posted by carracer at 6:27 pm on Oct. 29, 2008 So I went to see it on broadway the other day, and it was one of the best shows I have seen to date. "Synopsis: Billy Elliot is a funny, heart-warming and feel-good celebration of one young boy's dream in a gripping tale of triumph over adversity. Based on the enormously popular film, this powerful new musical is the story of a boy who discovers he has a special talent for dance, while the boys all around him are more interested in boxing. An unprecedented smash in the West End, where it has won 9 Best Musical awards, broken UK box office records and continues to sell out nightly, Billy Elliot has been created by the film's director (Stephen Daldry), writer (Lee Hall) and choreographer (Peter Darling), who are joined by music legend Elton John, one of the most celebrated pop songwriters of the last 30 years." The music and dancing were incredible. It was extremely well done. If you live in the UK or are an american who is going to New York, and like theater, I strongly suggest seeing it. -- Posted by Rodiggidy at 6:29 pm on Oct. 29, 2008 the last broadway show i saw was legally blonde live. -- Posted by carracer at 6:30 pm on Oct. 29, 2008 Quote: from Rodiggidy at 6:29 pm on Oct. 29, 2008 the last broadway show i saw was legally blonde live.

Twice, because after the first time it was so amazing that I needed to see it again. And it really is amazing. Fantastic. Probably the best show I've ever seen. -- Posted by n1ck3l51x3 at 4:35 pm on Nov. 9, 2008 I FREAKING LOVE BILLY ELLIOT!! its really hard to find a movie turned musical that is EXACTLY like the movie.  I loved every single minute of it
