Matteo Zecca - Billy

Here's a "Quick Fire" video interview with Matteo taken from the official BETMUK YouTube site:

Can anyone tell me which movie he mentions as his favourite? I don't understand what he says.

"War Horse!"

The book he'd like to read is "Private Peaceful," written by Michael Morpurgo, as is War Horse, he's a fantastic author!

Woah. Thanks. Wikipedia tells me that "Private Peaceful" is "an unflinching examination of the horrors of war and the injustice surrounding the execution of soldiers by firing squad, on the – often false – grounds of desertion or cowardice." Nice read for a 12-year-old! I think I found my favorite Billy.

Morpurgo is an amazing writer, I work with kids of around 12 and they all love him, even in a "I don't read books but-" kind of way!

From one dancing boy to another! Sending our luck to Dermot O'Leary in the final few hours of his 24 hour Danceathon.

So sorry to hear that Matteo's last performance is this evening, particularly as I am unable to be there to witness it.
Have a great show, Matteo and I wish you good luck for the future.

Sad to hear he's leaving. Judging from the reviews here and from his video-clips, he was the one I hoped for to see as my first live Billy on Tuesday. Well, maybe now I'm gonna see a new one instead.

Anyway, I wish him all the best. I hope he leaves in good spirits. Maybe he returns to the Royal Ballet School.
