Billy Elliot the Musical has been scheduled for further encore screenings, following the success of this weekend's mash-up performance.
The special performance saw all three original Billy Elliot actors - James Lomas, George Maguire and Liam Mower - taking part in a finale dance. The performance, which took place at the musical's West End home of the Victoria Palace Theatre, was broadcast live to eight countries.
Two screenings also took place at the Easington Social Welfare Centre (formerly the Easington Colliery Miners Institute), which was one of the settings for the story.
Billy Elliot: The Musical will now be screened to a further nine countries across four continents, with encore screenings taking place in 350 cinemas across the UK on October 2, 3, 4 and 5.
The musical will be available on DVD and blu-ray on November 24.

Set to premiere April 15, FX's new series "Fargo" has its first teaser, and it features Billy Bob Thornton. Intriguing and oblique? You betcha! Executive produced by the Coen Brothers, who penned and directed the 1996 black comedy starring Frances McDormand -- who won an Oscar for her performance as a scrappy and rather pregnant cop in small town Minnesota -- the series will expand on the mythology of the film across a ten-episode season. It will be a limited run a la "True Detective" or FX's own "American Horror Story." The series stars Tom Musgrave, Liam Green and Julie Anne Emery. The Coen brothers have writing credits on the first three episodes.
