Performance Information
Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo brings its internationally beloved troupe of male dancers to The Smith Center in Las Vegas to perform a brilliant combination of skillful pointe work and hilarious parodying of classical ballet favorites such as Swan Lake. Founded in New York City in 1974, the company, affectionately known as the “Trocks,” began by appearing in late-late shows in off-off Broadway lofts for small audiences who appreciated the iconoclastic humor of it all.
In the 50+ years since its founding, Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo has grown to achieve great appeal among more mainstream audiences who flock to theaters throughout the world each season to see these prima ballerinas perform. Revered by ballet aficionados as well as the uninitiated—those who don’t know a plié from a jeté—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,” says the Sydney Star Observer.
Attendees Under 18: Children aged 5 and up with a ticket can attend performances at The Smith Center. All patrons must have their own ticket, regardless of age. Patrons aged 16 or older may attend the performance without an accompanying adult with their parent’s or guardian’s permission.
