... school. This is balanced with the story of family and community strife caused by the miners' strike during the Thatcher era. I managed to get some good priced tickets on lastminute.com, for £35 each which included a two course dinner at Pizza Express. The seats were in the upper circle meaning we were looking down on the stage from a height, but with a clear view. Billy Elliot struck me as being a very high budget musical, there were many actors and dancers and the visual effects were very impressive. For example...more
