The team behind the much loved film have come together again to bring the Billy Elliot story from screen to stage. Stephen Daldry directs Lee Hall's story with an original music score by Elton John.
Billy Elliot, the inspiring film about a boy who discovers a passion for dance, was first released in cinemas in 2000, quickly becoming an international box office smash which earned three Academy Award and thirteen BAFTA nominations. In 2005, the original team behind the film - writer Lee Hall, director Stephen Daldry and choreographer Peter Darling - were joined by music legend Elton John to create Billy Elliot the Musical which opened in London to extraordinary critical and public acclaim and has gone on to play in cities around the world including New York, Chicago, Sydney, Melbourne and Seoul.
Now in its sixth year in London, Billy Elliot has truly become ‘A global theatrical phenomenon’ (Los Angeles Times) having won 76 awards internationally and been seen by over five million people across four continents.
