RICHMOND: Georgian Theatre Royal

SUN 19TH MAY, 2013 7.30pm

Magic, fun and a living doll.

Eccentric toymaker Dr Coppélius is planning to bring
his mechanical doll, Coppélia, to life – he thinks he
just needs the right spell.
When Dr Coppélius leaves Coppélia on his workshop
balcony she’s soon causing quite a stir in the village.
Particularly in the heart of redblooded young lover Franz,
and the jealous mind of his real-life fiancée, Swanilda –
who’s mistaken the mannequin for a crying, talking,
sleeping, walking rival. With a wild mix of abracadabra,
and some mischievous maidens, comic chaos is riotously
unleashed when humans and mechanical dolls collide in
Dr Coppélius’s spooky toyshop.
Vienna Festival Ballet’s enchanting production of this
joyous and witty ballet is an ever-popular celebration of
love, with a sparkling score and breathtaking
choreography.
Coppélia is guaranteed to lift the hearts of all the family.

"An excellent company of talented young dancers.
Their energy and enthusiasm is breathtaking."
