Step into a world of magic, mischief, and romance! This traditional ballet is based on a story from the 19th-century revolving around a young couple, Swanhilda and Franz. Their relationship is put to the test when a beautiful girl named Coppélia appears on the balcony of the mysterious Dr. Coppélius’s house. Franz becomes infatuated with her, sparking jealousy and frustration from Swanhilda, but they both are unaware that Coppélia is simply one of Dr. Coppélius’s mechanical doll creations. After Swanhilda discovers the truth, she exposes the ruse, but can she forgive Franz? Will their young love prevail? Don’t miss this delicate tale of beauty, love, and what makes us all human.
