With gritty determination he attempts to prove doubters wrong by going all the way. Winner of the 2009 Tony Award for Best Musical, the production's creative team features director Stephen Daldry, Sir Elton John (music) and Lee Hall (book and lyrics). Mr. Daldry and Mr. Hall were also the creative team behind the film.
