Due to overwhelming demand, a third West End date has been added to the premiere of new British musical Billie The Kid at the Vaudeville Theatre on 27 November. 

This is in addition to the previously announced 13 & 20 November. 

Seventeen-year-old Billie Belle is a girl used to having the odds stacked against her. Born in a Bible Belt town to a delinquent mother, Billie spent her childhood saving discount-store coupons and working night shifts to keep the lights on in her grandma’s tiny trailer. Through it all, Billie has had one person by her side: her childhood sweetheart, Brody Benson. Brody’s a redneck with a heart of gold and they have spent years planning their future together, all pinned on Billie’s hopes for a full-ride scholarship to Charleston City College. But their plans are thrown into chaos when Billie discovers Brody has been trading dirty DMs with David Francis – the school queer punk rocker. 

Torn between the pain of this betrayal and her love for her boyfriend, Billie reaches out to David and his gang of misfits. While Billie has put all her energy into thriving within the system, they’ve gone the other way, determined to be wild and joyful outsiders with no fear of offending! Inspired by and united with her new friends, Billie finds herself at the heart of a new kind of love story, one where her happily ever after is with herself in her fight for justice and equality; and the chance to ride out into the sunset on her terms. 

The cast includes Natasha J Barnes, Kymberley Cochrane, Harvey Ebbage, Ki Griffin, Beth Hinton-Lever, Tony Jayawardena, Rob Kershaw, Phoebe-Loveday Raymond, Aharon Rayner, Olivia Saunders, Jodie Steele, Yuki Sutton, Hannah Victoria, and Yasmin Wilde.

With music and lyrics by Gez Mercer, and a book by Conway McDermott and Gez Mercer, the musical is directed by Kerry Kyriacos Michael, with musical direction by Tom Cagnoni, choreography by Julian Capolei, lighting by Tim Deiling, sound by Sam Vincent, costumes by Stephen Foley, musical supervision by Alex Beetschen, and casting by Andrew Lynford.
