Coppelia, a comedic ballet set in a European village in the late 1800’s is a story told through dance about a beautiful young girl, Swanilda; her fiancé, Franz; the mysterious doll-maker, Dr. Coppelius; and his life-sized, dancing doll, Coppelia. With a cast of 53, beautiful costumes and sets, professionally trained dancers, and lighthearted comedy, Coppelia is sure hit for children of all ages!
