Les Ballets Trockadero to Bring All-Male Comedic Dance to Key West April 25
KEY WEST, Florida Keys — The world-renowned Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo, an all-male dance troupe performing in oversized tutus and toe shoes, is to captivate audiences at Key West’s Tennessee Williams Theatre, 5901 College Road, at 8 p.m. Thursday, April 25.
The unique revue presents a playful, entertaining view of traditional ballet through parodies of iconic productions like “Swan Lake.” Modern dance and original works also are featured.
During Les Ballets Trockadero’s performances, professional male dancers take all the roles, delicately balancing “en pointe” and executing flawless ballet moves. The dancers’ extraordinary skills and athleticism provide an intriguing contrast to the comedic elements.
Since the troupe’s founding in 1974, “the Trocks” have become an artistic and popular success as well as a worldwide dance phenomenon. The troupe has participated in international dance festivals, appeared on numerous network television shows and toured to perform in some 43 countries.
The Trocks’ Key West performance is presented in part by the island city’s Aquaplex drag and entertainment club. Tickets are priced from $35 to $145 per person, depending on seat location.
