    Thrilling audiences worldwide and winning ten 2009 Tony Awards® including Best Musical, 'The best show you will ever see' (New York Post) is coming to Philly! Billy Elliot the Musical is a joyous celebration of one young boy's journey to make his dreams come true. Ben Brantley of The New York Times calls Billy Elliot 'The most inspiring show I've seen in years.' Set in a small town, the story follows Billy as he stumbles out of the boxing ring and into a ballet class, discovering a surprising passion that inspires his family and his whole community.

    Based on the international smash-hit film, Billy Elliot is brought to life by a phenomenal cast of 45 and the Tony Award®-winning creative team -- director Stephen Daldry, choreographer Peter Darling and writer Lee Hall -- along with music legend Elton John, who has written what the New York Post calls 'His best score yet!' A big musical with an even bigger heart, Billy Elliot will enchant the dreamer in all of us.
