From the NewsTribune:

"Billy Elliot the Musical," which opens tonight at Capital City Productions, 719 Wicker Lane, follows the title character, a young boy in a northern English coal mining town affected by the coal strikes of the early to mid 1980s. When Billy stumbles across a ballet class, he instantly knows it's for him, but his family doesn't see it the same way.
