`Billy Elliot,' Coal Miner's Son, Leaps to Heights
Bloomberg.com: Arts and Culture: "A show's claim to offer ``something for everyone'' usually signals disaster: the lowest common denominator and the antithesis of art. Well, for once, the exception proves true: ``Billy Elliot'' -- London's long-running hit with Elton John's music, finally replicated on Broadway -- really does have something for everyone, and that something is, gloriously, art."

I'm glad to hear that this reviewer was able to look past the show's recent technical difficulties and appreciate it for what it is--a grand evening of theatre. This show is pretty amazing, and it is good to hear that others agree.
