this show and these boys are absolutely awesome! So much talent!
hahaha i said they were all amazing, i couldn't do anything neeeeearly as good as them, im sorry for expressing an opinion, but you need to calm down
Trent is the BEST! w/ Tommy!
I saw David do it, and he was fabulous! My favorite, by far!
trent is the best of the three cos he does the accent best but the british billys are much better
White Trash Little Girl.....
Oh please, stop being ridiculous!
I saw Trent, and he seems to be the better of the 3, David just learned English (he knew Spanish and french, and learned English for the show) so his accents a little weird for me, and Kiril seems too serious, they all are amazing, but Trent's still my favorite.
They're very good, but I like the British Billy's better
The three singing together without harmonization sounds a bit rough.
Actually Trent originally did Irish step dancing not ballet.
best EXTENSION?... best TURN OUT?
My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?!
Kiril is totally the best
he has the best extension best turn out
and can sing well 2
i love kiril!!!!!
perfect performance congrats on tony win
holy shit. that was amazing. completely inspiring...i was holding my breath the whole time.
Congrats on your tony win Kiril, David, and Trent. Alll of you deserved it.
o definatly, and wat makes it more amazing is that they are 14-15
That's true... Solidarity or Shine
I love Billy Elliot, the movie was superb and the musical is everything I had hoped for-- and more. Now, I love "Electricity" as much as the next BE fan, but I feel as though the song is being beaten to death- it's the only number from the show performed 4 these TV shows. I wish they would showcase the other wonderful songs in the show, like "Expressing Yourself" (great song & dance number), or "Shine" along w/ "Solidarity." Love Electricity, but there can be 2 much of a good thing...
I completely agree...no other performance by a leading actor in a musical has been so challenging. All three boys have to be able to pull off a grueling triple-threat performance of dance, singing, and acting-- no small feat, even for an adult. I think even if it wasn't such a slow year for the Best Actor race (Gavin Creel is the only real competition in the category, and I doubt he'll win)-- the boys would be a shoe-in to win...
THEY ARE GONNA WIN!
aw they look so much older since the last time they performed all together!
This is probably my favorite performance of the 3 of them together.
congratulation david, kiril, tren ... BILLY ELLIOT, the "best" show on Broadway right now!!!!!
