COSTUMES
Elton - The Young Years prides itself on the detailed attention that goes into re-creating Elton's 70s outrageous costumes.
Remarkably, even though the first half of the 70s was Elton's golden period (the man was responsible for 2% of all record sales on the planet!), there is precious little footage of his record-breaking concerts. Consequently, it's easier to visualise Elton in his 'boater hat' or 'modest suit' phases, because those latter periods were so well documented.
Nonetheless, the producers of Elton - The Young Years believe that audiences get more value for their entertainment dollar when experiencing the man at his most breath-taking!
