Re: Nat Sweeney-Billy
A very inspirational story posted in the Birmingham Mail today about Nat and his twin brother Oliver:

Re: Nat Sweeney-Billy
Wow! I did not know that. It is the sort of story that would make a great biopic for the BBC, and PBS.
Thank whomever for the National Health Service. For a family to have to endure this challenge, without any concerns about its costs is, in itself, something to which everyone should have a right.
It reads as though Nat has the next thirty years mapped out!

Inspirational stories don't come much better than that. So, we now have on our hands at the VPT a coming together of a fictional inspirational story and a real-life inspirational story. That should make the final spins and pose of Electricity a very special emotional moment.
I flew over to see The Lord of the Flies in Birmingham and, in a short review here, said "The local amateur cast fitted in with the Pros like a glove and I was so pleased that they were given their own thoroughly deserved curtain call applauded by Layton and Co. from the side ". Little did I know then that a future Billy was in there among them. It proves once again that, if you're out there somewhere, they WILL find you .
Looking forward very much to seeing Nat perform asap.

Re: Nat Sweeney-Billy
What a Great Story so inspirational about the brothers. Nat, I wish you All the Best in your dancing career, looking forward to see you soon. I mustn't miss you out Oliver, The Best of Luck also in your attempts at a soccer career (p.s. and that's coming from a Villa fan).

Re: Nat Sweeney-Billy
I love this line from Nat about what he feels his future holds:
“In the future I want to work more in the West End and on Broadway and then, when I start to get bored with that, I’d like to have my own school to pass on my secrets.
Maybe when I’m in my late 20s or early 30s!”

Re: Nat Sweeney-Billy
Wow, such an amazing story about Nat and Oliver! How interesting that Oliver was the first to take up dancing, and he has since turned his interest to football. You never know.
