That's true Steven, I was thinking if anything the lack of ready-billy's would be the reason to move a production since I think it'll do well here in Chicago.

I have more faith in ticket sales then I do in the number of Billys they can train for ALL the different productions...we are already close too working on fumes. That may be a major limitation.

If we train hard Steven I reckon we could do six months for them. I'm not doing the wall flip though

You can probably forget Angry Dance, too, David. I've seen you come down a flight a stairs. . . . .

Anywho, back to Toronto . . . .

According to the public Twitter of Mirvish Productions, who is bringing BETM to Toronto:

"Billy Elliot The Musical begins Jan 28, 2011 at Toronto's Canon Theatre! Tickets go on sale in September!"

Group ticket sales began today for the 1st Tour stop of BETM in Toronto at the Canon Theatre. Single ticket sales there begin on Monday (September 27).

People who have never seen a show in Toronto should be aware the Canon follows the Canadian tradition of seat numbers. The numbers go straight across the row from one to the highest number of that row. This is different than the US where we have an odd/even split on the sides and 3 digit numbers in the center.

In this case it looks like the orchestra seats are numbered from 6 to 54:

There's a nice article in the Toronto Star this morning about the four Billys and Kate Hennig who will be appearing in the Toronto production of the show.
