Billy Elliot the Forum

Tydo Korver will play Billy in the Dutch production.

Looks like tydo got his "Billy" haircut. https://twitter.com/slienepien/status/5 ... 5969815553

Tydo posted these production photos on his public Instagram, showing scenes from Solidarity, Express, and the Born to Boogie piano flip. You really can't see any big difference, in terms of sets and costumes, between this production and those in the UK and North America.

Tydo will play his final show tonight, Saturday 18 July.

Tydo's final show was a special one. Tydo's family shouted out they had number 84 at the lottery, a standing ovation for Tydo (in tears) after Electricity. When George asked Billy if he had heard anything about the audition Tydo gave him a slap. And Michael forgot to say "See you, Billy" at the end. A special performance it was!

Aww, very touching, especially those of him crying there at the end. Must be such an emotional moment, and only heightened by his age. Thank you for sharing the photos and review!

Great photo's especially the last one, Tydo was so heartbroken ready there, for a good hug from Mum and Dad.

Great photos! I can imagine how emotional it must be to leave the show, especially if you could have easily done many more shows.

Tydo and his (older) sister and (younger) brother have started a YouTube channel, 'The Korvs'.

As it is not Billy specific, I have not wanted to mention it earlier, but they have now posted a video about their visit to the final show on Saturday. It is in Dutch, but still worth watching, I would think!
