Here's a review from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette:

http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/12032/1207443-500.stm

A generally positive review, though the writer thought it was overlong, the accents hard to decipher and he mis-spelled Lee Hall's last name, calling him Lee Ball.

This is more of a reflection on the comparison between the story of Flashdance (set in 1980's Pittsburgh) and the story of Billy Elliot, but I suppose that it still qualifies as a review.

Now, that would be quite an amazing "Electricity." ;)

This is a blogger's review with a twist - it even offers free ITunes downloads of BETM numbers:
