This morning, we speak with @guillaumecote , former principal dancer for the @nationalballet and the Artistic Director of @cote_danse . He shares why he penned an open letter to actor Timothée Chalamet following his comments comparing movie-going to the opera and ballet. “One day your films will belong to the archive of cinema, as all films eventually do. But somewhere, decades from now, another generation will gather in a theatre to watch a revival of Swan Lake. New dancers will step onto the stage carrying the same passion, discipline, beauty, and care inherited from those who came before.“
