Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo presents a mixed bill of classical and contemporary ballet works performed by an all-male ensemble in full drag. This legendary company, founded in 1974, celebrates the art form through a unique lens of parody, homage, and virtuosic performance. Each mixed bill typically features reimagined versions of classical ballet staples—from Swan Lake to Giselle—alongside original comedic pieces and contemporary works. The performers combine technical excellence with theatrical flair, creating an experience that simultaneously honors and playfully subverts ballet tradition. Through exaggerated gestures, elaborate costumes, and impeccable execution, the Trockadero challenges conventional notions of gender and presentation in dance while delivering genuine artistry and entertainment. The company's irreverent approach has made it a beloved fixture in the international dance world, attracting audiences who appreciate both sophisticated comedy and serious ballet craftsmanship.
