Book tickets to see Billy Elliot the Musical and get up to 41% off

The classic Elton John & Lee Hall musical continues at Victoria Palace Theatre until December 2016. Offers valid for performances up to 12th February 2016

One of Britain's most popular post-war dramas, Billy Elliot, has its memorable storyline indelibly stamped into most film-goers psyche, no matter which generation they may hail from. After all, it isn't every day that you see a film or read a book about a young boy from the tough North East aiming to become a ballet-dancer - during the 1984-85 miners strike.

The film shared similarities to the earlier award-winning Little Voice - considerable precocious achievement, nailed in the face of adversity with bittersweet undertones and a good old dose of Brit soap-opera - but with the unlikely becoming the likely.

Billy Elliot the Musical has continued to relate an adapted version of the story on stage since 2005 and has been a massive hit. Lee Hall's detailed and charming transcript and Elton John's perfect and perfunctory soundtrack work a treat, with over 7 million theatregoers to back up the numbers.

The endearing story of young Billy's quest to secretly take dance-lessons while his family and friend's families stand on the coal-face picket-lines defending their livelihoods, communities and jobs against Thatcher's sweeping arm of cutbacks and closures, still has a ring of relevancy about it today.

As the PR tagline stresses, "....there's never been a better time to see Billy Elliot".
