改編自電影《舞動人生》,舞台劇BE的故事劇情在主線並無太大的改變,看過電影的絕對不會難以理解。比起電影有趣的地方,是舞台劇免不了就是要唱歌、跳舞、獨特的舞台設計、演技豐富的演員,和許多幽默吸引人的對白。Elton John的加入,是BE另一個成功的重點。不用我說Elton有多麼會製作音樂了?他為BE設計的每一首歌,都讓人難以忘記它的旋律,直到現在我還是偶爾會情不自禁地哼起『Electricity』、『He Could be a Star』甚至是『Dear Billy』...

It's like that there's some music, playing in your ear But the music is impossible, impossible to hear
But then I feel it move me Like a burning deep inside Something bursting me wide open Impossible to hide And suddenly I'm flying Flying like
