They were active in local theatre productions, including Bye Bye Birdie at Le Petit Theatre du Vieux Carre, “Seussical the Musical” with Brandt Blocker Presents at Six Flags New Orleans, and Peter Pan, until Hurricane Katrina forced their family to relocate to Austin, Texas.[3] In Texas they performed with the Zachary Scott Theatre and the youth theatre kidsActing Studio and appeared in multiple productions, including Beauty and the Beast, Grease, and Cabaret.

Although the three actors who portrayed Billy shared the Tony nomination for Best Leading Actor in a Musical, Bologna alone was nominated as Best Featured Actor in a Musical, as they had been the one to "debut" the role in the first "official" performance.[6] Bologna's last performance in Billy Elliot was on September 27, 2009, however they returned to perform the role of Michael on June 16, 2010, for a limited engagement which lasted until August 8, 2010.
