Principal adult casting has been announced for the first-ever U.K./Ireland tour of Billy Elliot the Musical, which, as previously reported, is to bow out of the West End April 9, 2016, after a run of some 4,600 performances. The tour will open ahead of that, however, so for a time there will be two productions of the show playing simultaneously in the U.K.
