Billy Elliot the Forum

Thank you Alexandre. Been too long between reviews from you but like us all I understand you do have to work sometimes. (is work what you call it?) I was with you for Caesar's first shows in Chicago and was immensly impressed then. I can imagine after watching so many Billy's perfect their performances how what I saw then in Chicago has turned into utter perfection with all those performances under his belt.

Now will KiwiT go back to Toronto in May, after he sees Rhys Kosakowski dance in Sydney in April? I wouldn't lay bets against it happening

alexandre's reviews are even getting posted on youtube now

Yes, it certainly does have that reverse effect. It has a lot to do with the seeing different actors portray Billy and Michael but I also see something new each time whether it be scenery, choreography, or perhaps something from an ensemble member. Thanks for your review and enjoy your upcoming experience seeing Billy on Broadway.

That must be the first critic's review of a show that actually had Jack in it.

Sadly the Billy and Michael that do the press night do seem to get most of the coverage.

This article has already been posted in the Blogs section but it is also a review with Jack in it so I thought I would post the link here as well.

"The music is fantastic."

^ Take that!

A great review all around.

Not sure how this review took so long to appear, but I have searched this review thread and the blog reviews for it without finding it, so here's the link: http://www.nowtoronto.com/stage/story.c ... ent=179470
