Billy Elliot the Forum

Curious then... Theres lots of movies about aliens landing at the White House.... but I can't think of any about England in the World Cup... someone's missing an opportunity for revenue!!!

Do you mean there were actually other things happening in the US on Sunday besides the Super Bowl?

As a friend of mine said "I hear theres a football game opening for the big Beyonce concert on TV"

Here's a late (but great) review from the Virginia Gazette:

Wow, great review and such beautiful writing. A couple of my favorite excerpts:

For me watching Minard dance was akin to listening to the most extraordinary aria or orchestral overture. His dancing was fluid. His dance poured out of him like notes from a piano. A gorgeous performance.

Janet Dickinson...brought real depth to a character who could easily become a caricature.

I am assuming that this review is an expansion of the earlier one by Ann Efimetz, although her name doesn't seem to be given anywhere that I can see. She regularly reviews theatrical productions for the Gazette, and I respect her opinion, unlike that of the ignorant excuse for a theater critic that wrote the Times Dispatch review.

Just one quibble about Ann's review, for which she can be forgiven: She didn't pick up on the fact that Grandma was played by Susan Haefner instead of Patti Perkins.
