Cheers, Timmy! 🩰
Sir Alex Beard, Chief Executive of the Royal Ballet and Opera offered a cheerful thank-you to Hollywood star Timothée Chalamet for unexpectedly helping boost ticket sales.
Beard told The Times that Chalamet’s earlier comments suggesting that “no-one cares” about ballet or opera anymore sparked a wave of public interest instead. "Our post got two-and-a-half million engagements and half a million shares, just on Instagram. And our ticket sales got an immediate boost. So cheers, Timmy!"
