"The Trocks remain one of the great comic creations of the American Stage." — The San Francisco Chronicle
Dancing the fine line between high art and high camp, Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo has delighted audiences around the world by parodying classical works from Swan Lake to Giselle. The Trockaderos, an all male company of professional ballet dancers, offer hilarious evenings for young and old by combining a loving knowledge of dance with a wicked comedic sensibility. The Trockaderos' original purpose, to bring the pleasure of dance to the widest possible audience, has delighted those who enjoy classic ballet as well as those who love physical comedy.
Since its inception in 1974, this hilarious ensemble has established itself as a major dance phenomenon, appearing at dance festivals in New York, Spoleto (Italy), Holland, Vienna and Paris. International tours take the Trocks to scores of cities across the US, Europe and South America. Wildly popular in Japan, the Trockaderos make annual visits to that country, appearing in 30-plus cities.
