Elliott Hanna and Zach Atkinson's last show

[@edberger9858]

Even after attending so many shows here in the U.S. I am moved by this video seeing how kind and Patient Elliott and Zach are with this audience . These children have just completed 3 hours of the most grueling musical in history,but there they are , as they were here, still smiling and giving their hearts to their fans...Extraordinary !

[@caitlinmcdonald1715]

I agree. It's so nice to see Elliot and Zach with the fans. They're so lucky. I wish I could get a photo with them. The two together are literally perfection! ☺

Ugh do you want me to cry

[@cotton-Dave]

This little known link is such a wonderful pool of information of the Billys that I have to wonder that there aren't more people enjoying it. So sad. :(

Super cool video :) Like :)

In Detroit, MI they would have security around both boys. Elliott Hanna was 10 when he 1st went on the stage in BETM.

[@PartiallyGeorge]

These were different times. The security was there, AFAIK - as a function, maybe not as a flock of big and armed people providing for such - and I think it worked. Because people were capable of assigning correct priorities and weren't afraid of taking responsibility.

I wonder if he still does that finger and eye fidget /stim ? It'd one of the many things that made elkiot so special

[@kingofmeereen]

Hi! Do you have some more clips of Elliott on that night? Like him saying “See ya Zach” instead of “See ya Michael”?

[@PartiallyGeorge]

No, I don't, sorry. And, as far as I remember, he didn't say 'See you Zach', he said 'See you Michael' - they'd been banned from changing standard lines. There were exceptions, but not during that show.

[@kingofmeereen]

PartiallyGeorge Aww I thought it was tradition for leaving Michaels and Billys to use their real names? 😭

[@PartiallyGeorge]

@@kingofmeereen They did have this tradition but then a new administration came and banned it. The only one person who defied this ban was, as I remember, Matteo Zecca, but Tomi Fry who played Michael didn't reciprocate.

@@PartiallyGeorge aw so Elliott and Zach didn't do it? Damn.
