'Billy Elliot' Comes to Chicago - Webisode 1

This first webisode features interviews with Elton John (music), Stephen Daldry (director) and the four young stars rotating in the role of Billy Elliot, Tommy Batchelor, Giuseppe Bausilio, Cesar Corrales and JP Viernes. The discussion will include why they chose Chicago for the first U.S. production outside of Broadway and what makes Chicago such an incredible city for live theatre. Additional webisodes are scheduled to be released in March and April to introduce the cast and show rehearsals, audience reactions, opening night and more.

Tommy was my Billy while I was there a month ago. Talented kid (even though he's only a few months older than me). xD
