And a good first review from Greenville it is, accurate, well-written and very positive. What you want to see in a new city to get the crowds to come :)

Take your favorite teenagers. But beware: “Billy Elliot” may inspire them to move mountains.
Love that! Indeed a great review :)
Man, the 4 Billys all sound so amazing, I wish I could watch a show of the tour...

They are indeed amazing, Lola. Wish you could see the tour. It's different from the London show, but it has a great cast, and it's well worth seeing. :D

Rare to find a reviewer who thinks this:
The highlight of the evening comes fairly early when Billy’s grandmother recalls her youth and time spent with her husband. Her performance is simple and beautiful and juxtaposed against a line of dancers moving slowly across the stage in beautiful shapes full of emotion and story.
but cool, good for him! So glad Grandma gets the spotlight in his mind. :)

This blogger had a unique experience at the show (the location is not evident, but let's use the date to assume it is Greenville. It is not important to the story.) It is not a review per se, but gives a glimpse of what the show means to some people:
