Re: YouTube Clips (NOT Billy Elliot Related)
From "Forbidden Broadway", here is a fun spoof based on Matilda's "Revolting Children" about the way shows such as Matilda, Billy Elliot, Les Mis, and others exploit their talented young child stars.
Who knew BETM had a Philippine tour.

I am a sucker for good ads; the ones from the UK are generally far more interesting and creative than those from the States, but here is one that I think makes a point, and creates an impression, with only nine words. And dance is involved!
A rather touching ad from, of all things, my local cable company, showing the power of dance:
