Looks like one of their Billy's (Seth Judice) will do just fine. You can see a post confirming Seth's Billy on the Beck Center for Arts post https://www.facebook.com/beckcenter/ from June 2.

Meet Seth Judice, our Billy Elliot. He joins us from Houston, TX. Let's give Seth a big Cleveland welcome! (this is his first rehearsal, folks!)

By the way, this is the same Seth Judice who last year played Micheal in the Memphis production with Benjamin Cheng as Billy.
