Cousin Kerry = Dead Mum

Billy_Elliot.jpg

My cousin Kerry O’Malley last night joined the Broadway cast of Billy Elliot, playing Billy’s Dead Mum, a heartwrenching part. She’ll be playing the role through September 6.

Congratulations to Kerry!

One of the stranger coincidences right now is that my friend Caitlin is cousins with Trent Kowalik, who plays one of the Billys. We have been laughing about how our cousins (random) are in the same damn Broadway show right now. What are the odds.

Cheers to my gorgeous Dead Mum cousin – can’t wait to see the show!

    That’s so exciting! I saw Billy Elliot when I was at school in London (so good), and my mother and I saw Kerry in White Christmas — she was fantastic. Congratulations to Kerry!

    Trent was one of the Billys in London, too!

    I want to try to swing it to see it on a night when Trent is performing – although that might not be possible.
