BILLY ELLIOT Continues Run in Seoul
Performances will continue through July 26, 2026.
Billy Elliot the Musical is now playing through summer 2026 at BLUE SQUARE ShinhanCard Hall in Seoul. Performances will continue through July 26, 2026.
Based on the beloved 2000 film and featuring music by Elton John, the Tony Award-winning production follows a working-class boy in Northern England who discovers an unexpected passion for ballet during the 1984 miners’ strike. The Korean production is part of a major international revival that has been staged in London, Broadway, and across Asia.
The Seoul staging features a large-scale local cast of adult and youth performers, with rotating child actors playing Billy Elliot—a hallmark of the production’s demanding performance structure. While full principal casting varies by performance rotation, the production is led by a Korean creative team working under official international licensing.
Originally premiering in London’s West End in 2005, Billy Elliot the Musical went on to win 10 Tony Awards on Broadway, including Best Musical, and 5 Olivier Awards in London. Its Korean return continues a strong trend of major Broadway and West End imports anchoring Seoul’s 2026 theatrical season.
