    The 684 seat Fulton Theatre is central Pennsylvania’s premier regional theatre and National Historic Landmark and combines Broadway caliber musicals, comedies and dramas with the grandeur of ornate Victorian architecture.

    The Fulton first opened its doors in 1852. Today, 160+ years later, this National Historic Landmark Theatre continues to entertain, educate and delight audiences, bringing live theatre, music, and more than 130,000 patrons into downtown Lancaster annually.

    Billy Elliot The Musical (BETM) kicked off the six show 2016-2017 season at the Fulton, with each show averaging a four week run. It was presented 31 times between September 20 and October 16, 2016.

    The Fulton cast was be led by not one, but two veteran actors, with each having done multiple shows in the title role. Jamie Mann, who has starred as Billy in the musical in 36 previous performances at Florida’s Jupiter Maltz Theatre, at the Company Theatre in Norwell, MA and, most recently, at the Palace Theatre in Manchester, NH. Alternating in the strenuous role was Brooks Landegger, who starred as Billy twice before in the regional productions of the show in Oklahoma City and then Beverly, Massachusetts.
