Today I stumbled across this video from a few years back about ABT's Boys Programm:

I thought immediately "this little blonde guy looks familiar" but I thought I was wrong. How could I know him? Turned out it was Brooks :) hopefully he'll get another chance to play Billy! Interesting video, anyways ;)
