(I'd love to see and have this embroidered on a piece of wearable swag. BillyElliot in red and omane in white, all on a black background say.) I see it not so much as cute but rather as a clever play on words.
'Billy Elliot Fan' I would not want to be caught and seen wearing

I wasn't yearning for jargon mind you. I was just really struck by the common fan behaviors and alphabets (B, LL, T) and the happy coinicidence that ballet is at the heart of both phenomena.

Whereas all forum members are likely to also be fans of the musical (and other things connected thereto), the converse might not hold... that all fans are likely to also be forum members.

There are fans of ballet performances / performers; supporters, benefactors and patrons of the balletic performing arts; and balletomanes, a widely recognized, separate designation or category of devotee.

You got to it before I could...I could quite live with BFF, though I'd say that means Billy Fans Forever. Newsies fans had a great one Fansies
