Notes

Billy Elliot Review - Opening Night Oct 2019 Theatre Now, by Oliver Morassut “There are very few shows which one might be able to call, perfect. Last night’s performance of “Billy Elliot” is one of those few triumphs which dazzle and move the audience in a true spectacle of stage, music, and theatre. Every aspect of the production, from the stage direction, to company singing, to the choreography, sprung flawlessly from the stage, erupting the audience in a frenzy of delight and unstoppable energy. “Jamie Rogers, acting as the opening Night’s Billy, blew the entire crowd away with his energy and stage presence. Commanding attention from his first entrance and stunning the audience with his effortless skill as a dancer throughout. With a role as demanding as Billy Elliot, Jamie soared from beginning to end with an infectious energy that drove the entire show. His characterisation of Billy through moments of sadness and grief with his deceased mother, to the triumph of his audition with “Electricity” proves Jamie to be in every sense of the word a triple threat. He gave honesty and weight to the young Billy’s emotional expression.”
