The show opens in previews on January 12 & 13, 2016, with an official Opening Night on 14-Jan-2016.

    The cast of the show there will be led by two young Ontario dancers who will both debut in the role of Billy in Winnipeg.  They are Ethan Ribeiro and Eamon Stocks.  In the months before the cast even began formal rehearsals for the show, Ethan and Eamon traveled from their homes in Ontario to Winnipeg. Their destination: The Royal Winnipeg Ballet School. Once there they began three months of dance training specific to the role of Billy.
