Summary

We’re in Dulwich Park with the fabulous Layton Williams!

Layton tells us all about levelling up his career by appearing on Strictly Come Dancing - and how he dealt with criticism about entering the show with a background in dance.

He also tells us about his friendship with fellow former-Billy Elliot Tom Holland, how he dealt with rejection as a child star and how he met his partner in a mosh pit at Glastonbury.

Layton’s next project is playing the Iceberg (bitch!) in Titanique - New York’s award winning hit musical that is debuting in London on 9th December. You can get your tickets here!
