Billy Elliot the Musical
''Billy Elliot the Musical'' is a musical based on the 2000 film ''Billy Elliot''. The music is by Elton John, and the book and lyrics are by Lee Hall, who wrote the film's screenplay. The plot 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 UK miners' strike (1984–1985) in County Durham, in North Eastern England. Hall's screenplay was inspired in part by A. J. Cronin's 1935 novel about a miners' strike, ''The Stars Look Down'', to which the musical's opening song pays homage.〔("Bill and Lee’s excellent adventures" ) ''The Scotsman'' (Edinburgh), 2 January 2002〕
The musical premiered in London's West End in 2005 and was nominated for nine Laurence Olivier Awards, winning four, including Best New Musical. The production is still running strongly, and its success led to productions in Australia, on Broadway and elsewhere. In New York, it won ten Tony Awards and ten Drama Desk Awards, including, in each case, Best Musical. It has also won numerous awards in Australia including a record-tying seven Helpmann Awards.
A live recording of the musical was released on DVD and Blu-ray on 24 November 2014 in the United Kingdom.
