Well last night we went to Aldona's house and meet one of the kids ho is starring in Billy Elliot when it opens on Broadway this year..
He is a very nice kid named Kayril. And, boy, does he make one feel like an under achiever.
.
He is 14, 2 years Ballet Champion of the US, 3 time junior Latin Ballroom Champion, can sing and dance and got the Billy gig via open auditions with over 4,500 kids!
.
And yet, he seems like a nice kid. Well spoken, with a slight russian accent (he was born here, but his family emigrated from the Ukraine after the fall of the USSR). He does the Jordy? (northern British) accent great and in character.
.
It should be a lot of fun to watch.
