Combining a wicked comic sense of humor with respect for true classical dance, the all-male, 16-member Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo dance a fine line between high art and high camp. This internationally beloved troupe of burly dancers, affectionately known as the "Trocks," have been praised by The New Yorker for "delivering more bang for the buck than most other classical companies in America." For decades, these turbo-charged ballerinas have delighted audiences with parodies of classical ballet. From Swan Lake and Le Corsaire to La Trovatiara and other signature pieces, their studied postures blend with over-the-top gestures and powerhouse technique to deliver performances that amuse at every level.
With amazing flexibility, the strength of well-trained men, and the ability to spin like tops and balance on toes as swans, The Trocks have performed with prima ballerinas worldwide and become a mainstay of major dance and classical festivals everywhere. The Austin Chronicle claims, "They shine with such a decidedly self-deprecating brilliance that one can't help but laugh with them and adore them." Bridging the crossover divide, see why the Sydney Star Observer says "The Trocks are a guaranteed hoot for people who know nothing of ballet and an absolute must for those who think they know the originals."
