Billy Elliot the Musical opened in London in May 2005 to extraordinary reviews, has broken UK box office records and is still playing to capacity houses at the Victoria Palace Theatre.

Set in the North East of England it is a funny, heart-warming and feel-good celebration of one boy's dreams set against the historic British miners' strike of 1984/85. The story follows the journey of a young boy raised in a small mining town who, after stumbling across a ballet class while on his way to a boxing lesson, realises that his future lays not in the boxing ring, but on stage as a dancer.

Directed by Stephen Daldry with book and lyrics by Lee Hall and choreography by Peter Darling, Billy Elliot the Musical was developed for the stage by the same multi-award winning creative team behind the film. The score has been composed by music legend Elton John, the most celebrated UK singer songwriter of the last 30 years.
