Dreams of Dance and Opportunity
Billy Elliot
Miss, what if I blown?
Sandra Wilkinson
This'll sound strange, Billy. But for sometime now, I've been thinking of the Royal Ballet School?
Billy Elliot
Aren't you a bit old, Miss?
Sandra Wilkinson
No, not me, you. I'm the bloody teacher. They hold auditions in Newcastle.
Billy Elliot
I'll never be good enough. I hardly know it.
Sandra Wilkinson
No look, they're not interested in how much ballet you know, they teach you that. That's why they're a ballet school, it's how you move and how you express yourself that's important.
Billy Elliot
Express what?
Sandra Wilkinson
I think you're good enough to go for it.
Sandra Wilkinson
It'll mean an awful lot of hard work.
Billy Elliot
But I'm banned.
Sandra Wilkinson
Maybe I should have a word with him.
Billy Elliot
No, Miss!
[nervously]
Sandra Wilkinson
Well, I can teach you on your own, if you want?
Billy Elliot
I wouldn't afford it.
Sandra Wilkinson
I'm not doing it for the money, Billy.
Billy Elliot
But what about dad?
Sandra Wilkinson
He doesn't need to know.
Billy Elliot
And what about me boxing and that?
Sandra Wilkinson
Oh, for fuck sake, Billy! If you wanna piss about with your little mates, that's fine with me!
Billy Elliot
Well, all right, all right, don't lose your blob!
Sandra Wilkinson
Blob?
[short pause]
Billy Elliot
So we can do it privately?
Sandra Wilkinson
Just you and me.
[holds his hand]
Billy Elliot
Miss, you don't fancy me, do you?
[short pause]
Sandra Wilkinson
No, Billy, funnily enough I don't. Now piss off.
[laughs]
Billy Elliot
Piss off yourself.
[short pause, smiles]
