05 Dec Finding Billy

This heartwarming documentary reveals the process of finding and casting the three original boys who played ‘Billy’ in “Billy Elliot the Musical” on Broadway and includes interviews with the creative team during the rehearsal process leading up to its Broadway opening. The documentary aired on Channel 13 in 2008 and was nominated for two Emmy’s. When the rights reverted to the director, he added an epilogue that brings the three Billy’s into the present. A tribute to the perseverance and sacrifice of the kids and their parents, this film now features interviews with the multi-talented Trent, David and Kyril, who will join the director onstage for a reunion.
