Trent featured on BBC's I'd Do Anything

Trent was featured alongside fellow Billy castmates Josh and Layton on BBC One's I'd Do Anything, working with contestants hoping to play Oliver in a West End revival of Oliver!.

They broke up into groups and rehearsed a few songs and scenes from Billy Elliot, shared some stories, their backgrounds, and had a blast!

If you missed it on TV, here's a clip from Saturday's show:

Trent -

Thanks so much for posting the video clip. Living in the US, I've only seen a couple of clips of the Olivers. They seem like an energetic bunch. I came away with the impression that they learned a lot from their visit to the Victoria Theatre. I noticed several of them were really good singers, which wasn't always obvious in the clips I've seen from the past. I'm guessing that working with you and the other Billys, along with your music director, game them some good ideas. It was great fun to see you working with them and giving them tips and pointers. I do hope you had a good time.

Thank you again for the blog. I love reading it and can't wait to visit London again so that I can see you perform in person.
