Tickets for the London run of Hamlet at The Novello Theatre have already completely sold out.
The official theatre booking site crashed within minutes while fans jammed the telephone hotline, snapping up all 6,000 tickets by the end of the morning. Hundreds of people queued outside the Novello in the hope of getting tickets, with some camping out in the street overnight.
An RSC spokeswoman said of David's influence on the audience: "The great news for us is that it's encouraging that younger contingent of theatre-goers, which is one of our real aims. David has been wonderful in encouraging those people to come."
We hope you all managed to get a ticket!
