Maybe it's me ... but I just don't find gays dressed up as females amusing or entertaining. I wouldn't be caught dead there or give them the sweat off my behind to line their pockets.
The arts are separated from ordinary family activities like school, shopping, and church. Those of us who think the Trocks are a laff riot can buy our tickets and go enjoy ourselves -- those that don't, don't.
Which sounds a lot like the old trope about "knowing your place," but like most stereotypes there's a grain of truth in there. Nobody likes to have somebody else's alternative lifestyle shoved in their face, but if it's in a place where it's expected to be, and everybody knows it, nobody's offended and everybody can have a good time, those who go and those who stay away.
Seriously, though, they ARE funny. It's not so much a frankly homosexual event (although most of the Trocks are in fact) as a send-up of the foibles of the prima ballerina and the rest of the female corps de ballet -- which believe me was LONG overdue. If you've seen a typical local ballet company's Swan Lake and then watch the Trocks' version, it's a howler.
. . . of course, my mom's a professional dancer so I'm used to all this stuff.
