New theatre love: Billy Elliot

The BU programme has tons of discounted tickets to different theatre and activities around London, so tonight Allison and I saw Billy Elliot in 60 pound seats for… 16 pounds. Not too shabby.

The show was great! Lots of fun music, impressive dancing, and a good storyline.

I still enjoyed myself, though!
