Not necessarily. We have had other posts about possible new Billys in General Chat, many of which have not turned out to be correct. Although link that kport gave names him as a Billy, obviously he isn't the one starting today, and we won't actually know if he will end up as a Billy until/unless we see an official notice from the company. So based on that, I am okay with leaving the post where it is for the time being.
Edit: I have since moved the posts about Nat into the Possible New Billy? thread in Chat About Billy Elliot London.

Perhaps the Billy Bedroom Set can become a set of gymnastic bars? The scope of his talent seen here predicts an amazing Electricity!
Re: Nat Sweeney - new Billy?
No doubt his Electricity could end up being quite the acro experience. In this video some of his moves make me cringe because he is so flexible. By the looks of this video they should expand their kitchen if this is where he does his training or maybe he is looking to bring an entirely different perspective to the kitchen scene in BETM….kport wrote:1RadBilly wrote:Nat won't have any problems with the acro….

Re: Possible New Billy?
According to this tweet by his school, Notre Dame Everton, there may be another Liverpool Billy to replace the one who recently left the show. The boy's name is Adam.

Re: Possible New Billy?
Just over a year ago, I posted a link to a 'possible new Billy' from Blackpool, who had just been awarded a place at the RBS. One of his goals was to one day play Billy Elliot on the West End.
Remember this kid?:

That article was posted here on March 15, 2014, in the thread 'Boys Breaking Ballet Stereotypes', long before we knew he would play Billy.
Today, this popped up, from the same paper. For a moment, I thought it was the same story:

He has also taken part in Matthew Bourne's Lord of the Flies.
Perhaps he will be another Blackpool lad to become Billy Elliot.
And live his dream.

Re: Possible New Billy?
If he is taking up a place at White Lodge, it is not likely that he will become a Billy unless he decides to give up that place. As Liam Mower found out, it is too difficult to maintain a place at the RBS and be part of the show at the same time.
