It all depends on the audience really. Lots of people do like it for god knows why. It definately doesnt appeal to younger audiences, but than again mountain biking doesnt appeal to 70 year old walmart greeters.

Care to define young?
Given the context, I'd probably go with the under 90 set myself.

Oh so that explains why our demographic is mainly women aged 25-45. Sorry guys I have to let you in on a little secret the ballet audience is a goldmine of young single women looking to meet interesting men.

Well that's actually quite interesting. I'd be very interested in the correlation between being single and watching ballet. Where is the causation in that scenario....

the only guy you will meet at the ballet is a dirtbag who is obviously there for the chicks or a guy who is there with his bf.

I went to a ballet. I made a promise to try one of every type of art that could be thought of. When the 70 year old behind me fell asleep (not a joke - she was snoring) I swore off the ballet.
