Have ballet and opera actually benefited from a Chalamet Effect? Timothée Chalamet called opera and ballet irrelevant. The industries clapped back, tickets sold – but now comes the harder task of keeping those audiences, say University of Melbourne experts.

Nearly everyone in the arts had an opinion about Timothée Chalamet vs. Opera and Ballet.

But did the flood of outrage and op eds have an impact on what matters most: ticket sales?

Has there been a...(dramatic pause)..."Chalamet Effect"?

The Rite of Spring, 1913, comes to us from Stravinsky's fascination with folklore and Roerich's fascination with human sacrifice and Slavic medieval art and costume.

My child loves ballet, been learning since 3, always been an honor student and won quite a numbers of competition. However, I find it financially straining. I wanted to support her dream but I don't have the means. How do you all support your ballet journey?

Timothée Chalamet told Matthew McConaughey he doesn't want to work in ballet or opera because "no one cares about this anymore."

His Mother did ballet and he completely shit on her profession.

🩰 Such a good vlog by Hannah to watch during my mobility session. Her honesty is so refreshing and inspiring at the same time.

Spent the weekend wishing I could go see ABT's Othello. And get that hour of sleep back.

6 classes and about 7 hours of ballet in one week. Pretty good for a recreational dancer!

It's funny ballet is stereotyped to "destroy" your body (not true) but the small pain in my side feels better after going to back to back classes.

Is #BalletSky a thing? Have a #parenting question I thought I’d throw out to the void. My 5yo loves “March of the Toy Soldiers” from the Nutcracker—both music & dance—he has been doing the “bum da da bum da bum da bum” constantly. Besides The Nutcracker, what other ballets might a 5 year old like?

Check out the San Francisco Ballet. I thank the gods that my college girlfriend dragged me to a ballet. Watching it has become a favorite pastime. I don’t need to explain why San Francisco is so wonderful, but it’s an extra advantage to have a superb ballet company here.

I wrote a couple of scenes involving a character having pointe shoe problems, and then I started having pointe shoe problems. I jinxed myself.

🩰 Mobility session with Hannah! These days I carry a lot of tension in my calves due to the rehab, so these sessions are even more important.

Le Jeune Homme et la Mort is a ballet by Roland Petit, choreographed in 1946 to Bach's Passacaglia and Fugue in C Minor, BWV 582, with a one-act libretto by Jean Cocteau.

Yes, there are newer renditions, but: Mikhail Baryshnikov is the best. Always.

I made this video to honor the grace and power it takes to move through spaces that weren’t always made for us, yet we continue to thrive. #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackExcellence #blackballerina

Hey stranger, I came across this in the #balletsky feed, and wanted to let you know that the ballerina in Sinners is Jahaira Myers. She's been with Dance Theatre of Harlem, and now working with Beyoncé. She is really incredible, isn't she? You can see Jahaira on Ig:

🩰 This video cannot come at a better timing. I'm unfortunately dealing with a muscle tear in my calf and I'm off cardio / leg exercises for a while and thus, reminding me that everyone go through these struggles is very helpful!

It's #tutuday because it's 2.2 today. I, however, am not a fan of tutus for myself, I can't stand the idea of wearing one. So for 2.2, here's a whole buncha tutus.
