Producers of Billy Elliot the Musical have released two brand new behind the scenes videos. The first takes a look at what it takes to play Billy, following the young actors as they train for the tremendous role. The second introduces us to Ollie Jochim, the West End's newest Billy. Watch both videos below!
Set in a northern mining town, against the background of the 1984/’85 miners’ strike, Billy Elliot is the inspirational story of a young boy’s struggle against the odds to make his dream come true. Billy’s journey takes him out of the boxing ring and into a ballet class where he discovers a passion for dance that inspires his family and whole community and changes his life forever.
