Billy Elliot is a wonderful musical with the heart， humor and passion to be called “the best show you’ll ever see” by the New York Post.
The musical is the joyous celebration of one boy’s journey to make his dreams come true. The boy called Billy is brought up by his father in a northern mining town against the background of the historic miners’ strike（1984—1985） . In the town， boys are expected to box， rather than dance， let alone dream of attending the Royal Ballet School. After a ballet class， Billy’s talent is spotted by his dance teacher who encourages Billy to apply to the Royal Ballet. The encouragement follows Billy in his triumph（巨大成功）over adversity（逆境） and his fight to prove his doubters including his father and elder brother wrong by going all the way.
The original film of the same name， nominated for three Oscars and 13 BAFTA awards， captured（俘获）the heart of people around the world. Reuniting the original creative team behind the film， the musical was directed by Stephen Daldry， with book and lyrics by Lee Hall who wrote the films screenplay， inspired in part by A. J. Cronin’s novel—The Stars Look Down—about an earlier miners’ strike. The music was composed by legendary（非常著名的） British singer， Sir Elton John.
The musical was first put on in London’s West End in 2005 and was nominated for nine Laurence Olivier Awards， winning four including Best New Musical. The production is still running strongly， and its success led to productions in Australia， on Broadway and elsewhere. In New York， it won ten Tony Awards. It also won numerous awards in Australia including a record？鄄tying seven Helpmann Awards.

《舞动人生》是一部精彩的音乐剧，热情洋溢、诙谐幽默、振奋人心，《纽约邮报》将其赞为“你看过的最棒的表演”。
这部音乐剧是对一个男孩梦想成真的欢乐祝贺。男孩名叫比利，生长在一个北方矿业小镇，由父亲抚养，故事发生时正值英国历史上的矿工大罢工（ 1984—1985）。镇上的男孩练拳击， 不会学跳舞，更不用说梦想去英国皇家芭蕾舞学校。比利上完一节芭蕾舞课后，舞蹈老师发现了他的天赋，并鼓励他报名英国皇家芭蕾舞团。由于这种激励，比利战胜了逆境，并最终向怀疑他的人（包括他的父亲和哥哥）证明了他们一直以来都是错的。
与之同名的影片，曾获得3项奥斯卡提名和13项英国电影和电视艺术学院奖，吸引了世界各地的人们。而该音乐剧则集合了电影的原班人马：由斯蒂芬·戴德利执导，电影的剧作家李·霍尔编剧并作词，其灵感部分来自A. J.克罗宁名为《星星下凡》的小说（描写了早些年矿工罢工的故事）。作曲者为英国著名歌手——艾尔顿·约翰爵士。
2005年，该音乐剧首演于伦敦西区，荣获9项劳伦斯·奥利弗奖提名，包括最佳新音乐剧奖。至今演出仍是如火如荼，取得了成功，相继在澳大利亚、百老汇以及其他地方上演。它在纽约获得了10项托尼奖。同样，在澳大利亚也摘得了无数奖项，包括平纪录的7项荷普曼奖。
