My favorite Billy Elliot Broadway

　　　　　Fell in love with Billy at intervals of BonJovi tour　－ Another favorite David of me －

I'm not good at english but let me try to write my review...please be patient to read.

I went to New York to see the fan club concert of Jon Bon Jovi in February.
It was able to have free time for two days because the concert was only one day.
But it was very cold in New York, and I did not want to walk around so much.
And then I decided to see the musical of Billy Elliot that is one of the favorite movie.

I was not expecting it so much because I never see the musical usually almost.
Therefore, it was a surprise that I was so impressed by this musical.
If I had gone to see at the first day, all three Billys were able to have been seen.
But I did not know anything about this at first.
However, Billy was played by David and it was good for me. And Michael was played by another David too.
First of all, the name of David is good. Why ? never mind...
( At that time, I was not able to meet David(Bryan) of the most favorite keyboardist from the band of Bon Jovi. )

Anyway, both David each one was awesome.
David Alvarez as Billy, his dancing was spectacular and magnificent.
David Bologna as Michael, his acting was very talented. He added a lot of fun and humor in the story.
I must say about the audience on this day were also wonderful. There was a standing ovation many times
The rest of the cast. Bravo to all !!! Finally I admit to getting teary-eyed in the middle and at the end of the show.
I will probably see "Billy Elliot the musical" a few more times.

Ive got the chance of the visit to USA again in April.
Of couse to see the Bon Jovi concert, but this time was in Las Vegas.
I gave up the first going to New York because of the distance and the money. but I did not want to regret.
I saw the calendar and considered it I only have to be able to leave on Wednesday.
That was right decision. Because I was able to see both Billy and Toxie( which was produced by David Bryan )

Let me start to my 2nd experience to see The Billy Elliot on 22Apr2009 (matinee)
I was very lucky to get 2nd row seat on the left side of orchestra from the next aisle,
also my neighbor did not show up, I was able to sit down on the aisle and got really nice view !
When I saw The Billy 1st time, my seat was rear mezzanine, that's fine to see the stage as a whole.
But this time I could see more small detail and their faces..

Billy was played by David A same as before I saw, he looks so seriously and his voice was getting a bit lower.
But I still love his dancing, what a very strong and elegant !
The line of his arm and leg was very beautiful. He has a muscle like the athlete.
It cannot be at all believed that he is only 14 years old.
One more thing I really loved his smile when Billy cheating Tony after recieved a letter from Royal Ballet School.

Keean's Michael was sooo pretty even more reall girl.
My 1st Michael was played by David B, he was a good entertainer but Keean was a gentle like Michael in the movie.
And I must attention to Tommy as a tall boy and posh boy, I felt a bit sorry to him couse he could playing Billy
but he was very modest in that day, I hope to see him as Billy again !

All of the casts were amazing but the audience...there were many old people in the center orchestra and
many young students in the mezzanine, they gave a applause but never stand up.
Billy and Michael recieved the standing ovations several times when I saw the show 1st time.
It's a very important factor to the show which is a chemistry with the audience.

Anyway, David lead the casts with big smile while in the curtain call,he did a great job !
Although I was the last one to waiting for David after the show, he looks tired but accepted to taking a photo
with smile and signs autograph.
And then I could catch Keean too after the evening show.(I missed him after the matinee).
They were both sooo nice, Thanks Boys !by theluji
