The first review - it is a lively and a positive one. My only complaint: why do people think that Billy Elliot takes place in Northern Ireland (or Scotland, or Yorkshire, or....)?
https://www.talkinbroadway.com/page/reg ... tl678.htmlMy only complaint about this splendid production of Billy Elliot is that it was roughly two hours and forty-five minutes long. Because how much time do you really need to decide if you want to spend the rest of your life in a coal mining town in Northern Ireland?
