A Port Theatre Spotlight Series Presentation
Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo
Comedy is serious business and ballet even more so. With that in mind, the Trock dancers work hard to balance their serious ballet technique with silly antics, all for the enjoyment of their audience.
Best known for presenting their lovingly-satirical takes on the tropes of classical ballet repertory, these versatile dancers layer slapstick humor with technical chops resulting in performances that simultaneously celebrate, skewer, and enliven the ballets that aficionados thought they knew, and that newcomers are initiated into through the universal language of laughter.
“There are two things you should know: one, they’re very fun, two, they’re really good.” CINDY SIBILISKY, BROADWAY WORLD
