Elton John "BILLY ELLIOT" Liam Mower / Haydn Gwynne 2005 London Ticket Stub

Description: This is a rare ticket stub from the Original West End production of the Sir ELTON JOHN and LEE HALL musical "BILLY ELLIOT" at the Victoria Palace Theatre in London. (The production opened May 11th, 2005 and closed April 9th, 2016 after 4600 performances.) ..... With music by Sir ELTON JOHN and book and lyrics by LEE HALL (who wrote the film's screenplay), the musical revolves around motherless Billy, who trades boxing gloves for ballet shoes. The story of his personal struggle and fulfillment are balanced against a counter-story of family and community strife caused by the eighties' coal miners' strike in Northern England. Hall's screenplay was inspired in part by A. J. Cronin's novel, The Stars Look Down, and the musical's opening song is an homage. It was directed by STEPHEN DALDRY and choreographed by PETER DARLING, as was the original film ..... LIAM MOWER, JAMES LOMAS and GEORGE MAGUIRE were the original actors who alternated in the title role, and the supporting cast included HAYDN GWYNNE as Mrs. Wilkinson, ANN EMERY as "Grandma", JOE CAFFREY as "Tony" (Billy's brother) and TIM HEALY as Billy's father ..... CREDITS: Music by Sir ELTON JOHN; Book and Lyrics by LEE HALL; Sets designed by IAN MacNEIL; Costumes designed by NICKY GILLIBRAND; Choreographed by PETER DARLING; Directed by STEPHEN DALDRY; Produced by Working Title Films, Old Vic Productions and David Furnish ..... DETAILS: This ticket stub from the June 22nd, 2005 evening performance measures 5 5/8" X 3 1/4" inches ..... CONDITION: With the exception of light edge wear, this rare ticket is in excellent condition and will make a wonderful addition to the collection of any musical theatre aficionado or historian. This item will be carefully packaged in a protective, carded sleeve and backed by stiff cardboard.
