Layton Williams ‘proud’ to have been first Black Billy Elliot | Attitude x Jaguar: The Creators

Layton Williams was born to be a star. Making his West End debut at the age of 12 as the first Billy Elliot of colour in history, Layton continues to exemplify the term triple-threat and is constantly breaking down barriers of representation in his industry. We spoke with the star on his meteoric rise to fame, living his authentic self, and why representation is so vital for him.
Attitude has partnered with Jaguar to amplify the stories of three queer creatives who live loudly and unapologetically in their creative fields.
Attitude is the UK and Europe's biggest-selling LGBTQ magazine.

Layton is lovely. When he was at Sylvia Young Drama School he lived with my sister and niece for quite a few months. He’s kind caring and such a genuine friend!
