Billy Elliot the Forum

Sinatra wrote:it has familiar solo numbers

I've come to realise that it's one of those shows that, through popular media, you know pretty much all of the songs, whether you like it or not! I know lots of people that know almost every word to 'I Dreamed A Dream', yet have never even heard of Les Misérables. It's the only show like it!

Booking Les Mis and Wicked for December this year, including BETM of course (will buy another tix when a friend has gotten his 'date' sorted.. yay Billy!)
Third time watching Les Mis. And 2nd time for Wicked. Fab shows.

I am also thinking of watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Read good reviews about it.
Anyone has watched it?

I saw "Les Misérables" last week for the first time (had seen the movie before) and I was very impressed, especially by the female characters! A fabulous show tells a great story - with a lot of fantastic songs! I`m sure I will see it again when I return to London.

Les Miserables n Billy! A must re-see.

I totally agree !

It seems that most BETM fanatics consider Le Mis tom be all time fav #2
I certainly do

I see them as tied #1 = Equal, but reveling in their unique differences. Les Mis is painted with a huge vibrant pallet of colour and drama; BETM is more intimate, introspective and thoughtful. Both are fantastic. Vive le difference!

Here is a little quiz: How many Billys or Michaels have also played Gavroche?
