    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!!

    Im so glad that I was able to see David Bologna as Michael while he was still playing the role, He was truly superb. Lots of talent for someone so young.

  • @angelenroute
    @angelenroute 15 років тому +2

    Yes, in this clip David Bologna plays Michael (the flamboyant friend) and David Alvarez plays Billy. I've seen all 4 Billys but haven't seen David Bologna as Michael yet. =( I really hope he keeps doing the role for a while so I can catch him but I promise anyone reading this who hasn't seen the show yet, you will be blown away no matter who you see in the various roles. They are all brilliant!!! --Sean

  • @AtteanLake7

    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
      @tigibus7 8 років тому +7

      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
      @tigibus7 8 років тому

      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.

    • @tigibus7
      @tigibus7 8 років тому

      Hazel, I would love to do so, but I have NO idea how to accomplish that. I am such a technological ignoramus I don't know how to get it from the dvd onto a format which would allow me to send it. Even should I figure that out, I have no way of knowing how to reach you. Maybe you have some suggestions.
