For Posterity - A Last Picture

Post by porschesrule »

As posted on Jake Kitchin's public Facebook fan page, the Cast and Crew of BETMUS got together for a picture on the set that I'm sure they'll each hold as a treasured keepsake of their time with the show:

According to Drew's Instagram, they have had their Closing Night Party:

Cameron looks snappy on his way to the party:

Mitchell is keeping count as well. This photo was on his Instagram yesterday, looking out into the vast empty theater. As Dad used to say in the Chicago/Toronto Royal Ballet Scene, "it's massive!"

I did see that that photo and wondered whether it is Credicard Hall, or a photo taken elsewhere. It looks like a rather grand older theater.

I had wondered whether someone would do a Photo Countdown since the three Billys (and two outstanding Michaels, Small Boy Cal, and all the fantastic Ballet Girls, plus the adult cast) are coming to the end of their Billy experience. I guess that will not happen (it seems to be a London custom) so I am glad that they are taking note of it themselves.

Even the irrepressible comeback kid Cameron Clifford is about the Hit the Happy Trails for good!

I believe it's Credicard Hall, as the photographer is Rafael Koch Rossi, who is based in Sao Paulo and took many of the Press Night pictures posted elsewhere on the Forum that many of us raved about.

Actually, we did do a countdown to the final North American show in Hartford. Although it may not seem fair, it was because for the vast majority of us fans of the tour, it really was the final show, and for us the Sao Paulo run seemed more like a cast reunion or a postscript to the tour experience. That may seem to be selling Sao Paulo short, but the countdowns actually are more for the fans on this forum than they are for the company itself, so that is why the countdown was done leading up to Hartford instead of Sao Paulo.

Here is the link to the countdown: http://www.billyelliottheforum.me.uk/fo ... =Countdown

Thanks, Ellen! I somehow missed that great countdown.

You are correct. It is, in fact, at the Smith Center in Las Vegas.......here is an earlier photo of Mitch and Noah on the stage in LV - from Mitch's old Instagram account:

That's not Credicard Hall.

Credicard Hall looks more like a concert arena on the inside...
