I went to watch Billy Elliot The Musical in London (another activity ticked off on my to do list)

-♥-


As I mentioned in a previous blog post I went down south at the weekend to visit my boyfriend. Prior to going down we both had been looking online at musicals to go and see as I had been pestering to go as I had never watched a musical in London before. Plus I have had to sit through going to Rugby matches and watching Football on TV it was only fair he was dragged to something I wanted to do.

It was a hard choice as I fancied watching a few but we narrowed it down to Billy Elliot The Musical. I had such a lovely time and I love going to the Theatre. As my University Degree is in Managing Performance which includes Managing of a Theatre I have always had an interest in Performing Arts. I just wish now I had taken advantage of watching more theatrical performances whilst at University.  


Please ignore the metal fences clearly doing building works! But me posing and looking forward to Billy Elliot.



Our seats were really high up, in the photograph below we were to the left towards the box's on the second row. The seats were named restricted seats however, I think we had really good seats as we were able to see everything on stage clearly and could see everything that was going on.




I really enjoyed Billy Elliot it was the first musical performance I had seen in London, the only disappointing aspect is that it didn't play one of my favourite songs out of the film 'We love to boogie' by T. Rex. 


Even though I really liked Billy Elliot I still love and prefer The Lion King Musical I saw it in New York a couple of years ago and saw it earlier again this year in Janaury/February can't remember exactly but saw it in Manchester for my mums birthday. I just love it and it would be one of the musicals I would love to see the third time round!


Have any of you seen Billy Elliot the Musical in London? What are your thoughts on it? I would love to know.

I think next time I would love to see Wicked, The Bodyguard or the new Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Which other Musicals have you seen in London? Any of these, please let me know your thoughts on them.
