Re: Sam Faulkner: Billy - Ogunquit
Here are a couple of brief dance videos from Sam's public Instagram. He appears to be very well qualified.

Re: Sam Faulkner: Billy - Ogunquit
He is 15, like Noah. You have to wonder why he was not in the Tour, seeing as he has an extensive background in dance and theater.CJ-Rochester wrote:Here are a couple of brief dance videos from Sam's public Instagram. He appears to be very well qualified.

Re: Sam Faulkner: Billy - Ogunquit
When I first saw the photo of Sam I thought it was Mitchell. After looking closer you can tell the differences, but at just a glance the resemblance between them is strong.

Do you have a link to something that says Sam is 15? I haven't seen that information in any of the links provided. Or did I just miss it?kport wrote:He is 15, like Noah.

Re: Sam Faulkner: Billy - Ogunquit
Okay, here is the link to another page of Sam's twitter, which gives his age as 15:
https://twitter.com/samfaulkner5678
From this page I also see that he is from Charlotte, NC, which is interesting to me for three reasons: 1. I lived in the Charlotte area for over 30 years before moving back to VA. 2. Dillon Stevens is from the Charlotte area. 3. There might be a small possibility that Sam could show up in the NC Theatre production in Raleigh in February.

Here is a great video of Sam singing Red Ryder (A Christmas Story the Musical) two years ago.
