LIAM MOWER - Billy Elliot

My name is Liam Mower and I’m 12 years old. I live in Hull with my mum and dad, and brothers Luke, Lewis and Leighton. My hobbies are dancing, acting, singing and gymnastics. My love for music started when I was a baby. Listening to music always made me want to dance.
When I was 8 years old I started my first dance school doing disco, rock and roll and also ballroom and latin. There I became a champion at disco and rock and roll.
Two years later at the age of 10, I felt something was missing, I wanted more so I joined gymnastics but 3 months later I left wanting to dance. I was encouraged by my mum’s friend to join the Northern Theatre Company where my interests grew for modern and tap, which I loved. A year later my dance teacher Julie, after much persuasion, introduced me to ballet, that’s when everything changed.
I then successfully auditioned at the Urdang Academy, and later gained a place at the Royal Ballet mid Associates. While dancing at the Northern Theatre Co and the Royal Ballet Associates, ballet became my favourite. Yet again I was encouraged by Julie to audition for Billy Elliot which has opened new doors in acting and singing, there I found inspiration and excitement within training. Whilst auditioning for Billy Elliot I gained a full time place at the Royal Ballet School "White Lodge”, where I am at the present moment. My ambition in life I feel has started to get the part of Billy and the chance to perform in the west end is as if all my dreams are coming true.
