Harrison Dowzell - Billy

[Westletonion]

Completely agree with all comments made. And yesterday it was one year since he started as Billy.

Sounds like we are losing Harrison on Nov 9th. (If Facebook is to be believed) He will be a great loss, but wish him all the best for the future.

Harrison's mum has given me permission to post the following message from her.

It is with mixed emotion that I would like to tell you that Harrison will play his last show as Billy Elliot on 9th November. On behalf of Harrison I would like to thank you all for your support. He is still the humble mischievous boy who went down to London to seek his fortune. Nottingham's very own Dick Whittington. We are very proud.

I have checked; the evening performance on the 9th has few good seats left.

I would like to express my thanks to Harrison's Mum for letting us know. Being able to show your appreciation to these magnificent Billys who bring so much enjoyment to so many is an integral part of the whole experience attached to this unique show. I've got my seat, flights and hotel booked.

I also agree that it's nice when advance notice is given about a Billy's final show so people can plan ahead and be in attendance if they so choose. I only wish I wasn't a $1200 plane ticket away, as Harrison's last performance is one I would definitely try to be at if I could. One of my personal all-time favorite Billys.

Yep! Cheers, I'll be there for Harrisons final performance, the family usually have me tagged at weekends but I've got off for this one. A Big Thank You! to Harrisons mum for letting us all know well in advance it is really appreciated.

I've just booked two of the very few good seats left for Harrison's final performance, so my sister and I will be there to see one of our favourite Billys. I have also just reduced her to a state of shock by saying I would give my football team a miss on that afternoon (provided they are not drawn away somewhere in the London area for the first round of the FA Cup). It's unprecedented, but after what they did last weekend, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, they don't deserve me!!
