Two New Billys For Billy Elliot

Billy Elliot, one of the most successful screen to stage transfers of recent years, is expanding its cast with two new Billys. 12-year-old Tom Holland from Kingston-upon-Thames and 13-year-old Tanner Pflueger from the USA join the cast next month.

Billy Elliot the musical premiered at the Victoria Palace Theatre in 2005 and has enjoyed massive success since. The uplifting show has played to over 2.5 million people across the globe and will open on Broadway and in Melbourne, Australia later this year.

Holland and Pflueger join current Billys Joshua Fedrick, Fox Jackson-Keen and Layton Williams in the role, which is shared to ease pressure on the young performers. The boys will be joined on stage by a glittering cast including Jackie Clune, Phil Whitchurch, Chris Lennon, Ann Emery, Trevor Fox, Sara Pyzer, Barnaby Meredith and Alex Delamere.

An heartwarming story of a young boy fulfilling his dreams, Billy Elliot is the perfect show for Holland and Pflueger to begin careers in theatre. Show and Stay® wishes them the very best of luck.
