Based on the Academy Award® nominated film, Billy Elliot The Musical has won the hearts of millions since it opened in London’s West End in 2005. Set in a northern mining town, against the background of the 1984/85 miners’ strike, Billy’s journey takes him out of the boxing ring and into a ballet class, where he discovers a passion for dance that inspires his family and whole community and changes his life forever.
The original creative team behind the film - including writer Lee Hall, director Stephen Daldry, and choreographer Peter Darling - is joined by music legend Elton John to produce a funny, uplifting and spectacular theatrical experience that will stay with you forever.
