Jamie performed "Electricity" at Bedford, CT's talent show last night. Note for long time fans, this is the
choreography by Greg Graham for the Maltz Jupiter Theatre production.

Three observations:

-Jamie Bell's 'choreography' in the film was not particularly refined. That is not the point - it is the nascent passion to dance that is spotted by the RBS examiners. That, I think, is what Greg Graham was thinking.

-I spoke today with the Company Theatre. They are over the moon to have Jamie.

-I have a pretty good idea where that Billy bag came from - it has been to more BETM shows that most of us! :D

I hadn't realized that, Chris. I posted it because The Company Theatre linked it this morning on its Facebook, to introduce Jamie.
