Show Notes
We're celebrating 350 episodes with Billy Nevers!
Billy has just completed his run as Aaron Burr in the UK and Ireland tour of Hamilton. Billy was part of the tour's original cast as Lafayette and Jefferson whilst also understudying Aaron Burr. He went on to takeover as Aaron Burr full-time for the final year of the tour.
Billy's theatre credits include: Fred in Groundhog Day (Old Vic), Jesus Christ Superstar (Barbican/Regent’s Park Open Air), Wonderful Town (Opera Holland Park) and Turn Up, The Color Purple in Concert and Overture (Cadogan Hall).
Billy was nominated for Outstanding Performance in a Musical at the 2022 Black British Theatre Awards for his performance as Store Manager and Dewey in the London revival of Legally Blonde (Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre). He was a swing in the original cast of & Juliet in Manchester and in the West End, and later returned to the show as Francois.
Billy has co-hosted The West End Frame Show a couple of times, but this is his first time In The Frame! In this episode, Billy delves into his journey with Hamilton. He discusses his history with the show, what it was like to open the tour and how he came to take over as Burr and what the role meant to him... and lots more.
