Gender-bending ballet company brings levity to classic dance form at Tobin Center Thursday
Self-described as a "gender-skewering comic ballet company," Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo has been performing en travesti — a fancy theatrical way of saying "in drag" — and en pointe since 1974. The group formed in the wake of the Stonewall Uprising, performing on a makeshift stage belonging to the West Side Discussion Group, an offshoot of one of the nation's earliest LGBTQ+ advocacy groups.
