The kid who plays Michael is phenomenal to be honest. So much energy, so much charisma and stage presence. I wasn't even looking at Billy because Michael was so captivating and watchable!!

@leathelesbo865 4 жыл бұрын

This kid is really good. I put him just under Zach (who is freaken killer) but like this is a kid I would put for a Tony. He is that good. One preference some might have for him is that his accent isn't as thick so some of the lines are easier to hear and get the immediate reaction from foreign listeners who might not be as accustomed to the strong exaggerations of someone like Zach. The real guttural speaking is easy for me, but it's different for sure.

@tigibus7 7 жыл бұрын

Georgia--- The boy playing Billy is David Alvarez, one of the Tony-winning original Broadway Billys. Far from being mistakenly cast, he is, by far the best kid I've ever seen in the role. I have seen clips of many, many performances, and David outdoes them all. I am lucky enough to have a bootleg copy of one of his full performances, and I can tell you that his acting --- and particularly his dancing is nothing short of superb! In this clip we are lucky enough to see both the best Michael (David Bologna) and the best Billy (David Alvarez). It is a real shame that these performances are lost to all except a few lucky ones (like me) who were able to obtain unauthorized recordings of the performances. Incidentally, I was also lucky enough to obtain bootleg copies of performances of the other two original Broadway Billys, (Kiril Kulish, and Trent Kowalik) both of whom were truly outstanding!

@tigibus7 7 жыл бұрын

Yes, the performance I have with David Alvarez as Billy features David Bologna as Michael. I think the role of Michael belongs to David Bologna. I've never seen another kid do it as well, though I've seen a plethora of clips of various boys doing the role, and some are really excellent. But David excels among them. He really deserved the Tony nomination he received.

Or MAYBE they actually cast the best person for the role. You know, that thing that people constantly say when a role is whitewashed. You don't deserve theater.
