The Oscar-nominated movie Billy Elliot became one of Britain's best-loved musicals when it opened in 2005, picking up an incredible ten Tony Awards during its Broadway run. Now it's returning to the West End again, and is still as exhilarating, hilarious and unforgettable as ever.

The film is set in a gritty northern town during the 1980s miners' strike, and follows a working-class dad and his ballet-loving son, who gives up the boxing ring to join an all-girl dance class.

Billy begins by hiding the switch from his dad, worried that he's going to be embarrassed, but his courage to stick with ballet eventually ends up uniting his whole family behind him, inspires his community, and proves the transformative power of art.
