The official Broadway site seems now to have every publicity video they have ever done, and a couple or audios as well. 8-)

I hadn't seen this one before:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PmwnVt9 ... e=youtu.be

Description says, "Broadway's own Tade Biesinger and Cameron Clifford took a break from rehearsal to answer fan-submitted questions at the Billy Elliot stage door." It was loaded (possibly reloaded) today.

I commented on the video because you watch this and they're both just so little and casual about their roles that if you didn't know better, you'd be concerned that you're about to see a Broadway show carried by a couple of little kids. Really is amazing that they are so humble about their awesome talents on stage in front of so many people!

This was great Sean, I loved it. Tade is the one NY Billy I have yet to see. However I have observed both him and Cameron at the stage door a few times. They are both naturally relaxed, and pleasant to talk to.

Actually, I believe it's more common than you would think. There have been quite a few London Billys who had to add ballet to their training, including Ryan Collinson, Tom Holland, Fox Jackson-Keen, and Layton Williams, and George Maguire to name just a few. In NY, Jacob Clemente is one Billy who began with tap and had to learn ballet, as did Tade, and I am sure there are others.

That's a really cute video! Both of them wanting to play a ballet girl :lol: . The role where you just kind of get to play around on stage.

To kick off the official start of their 30th season, Inside Broadway, the Great White Way's leading arts education not-for-profit will partner with the Tony Award-winning production of Billy Elliot to offer an exclusive ‘Creating the Magic' workshop on Thursday, December 8th at 10am. Sounds like a wonderful, free session for 1,000 New York Public School students!

As posted on the Billy Elliot the Musical's public Facebook page:

"Tade Biesinger, Brianna Fragomeni, and Joseph Harrington will be singing the National Anthem to kick off the Jets vs. Bills game today. How awesome is that! Break a leg, guys."

As was previously posted in this thread, Joseph Harrington, Briana Fragomeni and Tade Biesinger sang the National Anthem at the Nov. 27 New York Jets vs Buffalo Bills game.

Playbill has an article and some pictures of the event:

Here's an article about the "Inside Broadway" program held yesterday, at which 1000 students experienced what it was like to produce BETM on Broadway:
