Here are a couple of photos posted on Twitter by April Kalloo, a producer with Breakfast Television in Toronto. The interviewer in the photos is Dina Pugliese, a co-host on the show.

Tickets went on sale for the Toronto show today, and the first 100 people at the box office got one free ticket to the very first performance plus a tutu. :D I wonder if anyone we know got in on this.

This on BETM Toronto producer's (Mirvish) twitter regarding the appearance this morning of the four Billys at the promotional event there:

"RT @deanasumanac: just chatted with four ADORABLE, super talented little boys who will be playing Billy Elliot in Toronto--no child star attitude here!"

No pink tutu :( (not available to us online here in the UK unfortunately) but I made sure that I was near the top of the queue for online tickets today and got two excellent seats for early April. I was more pleased with the initial seat allocations for the Toronto production than I was when I booked for Chicago on the Amex pre-sale.

Someone tweeted that the banners are now up in downtown Toronto. Sure looks like Canada is getting ready for the 1st Tour of BETM to pull into town :)
