New York City Ballet: Coppelia
This delightful masterpiece performed by the iconic New York City Ballet tells the enchanting story of a whimsical inventor and his astonishing creation. This lifelike doll sparks both curiosity and chaos in a quaint village. For more than a century, Copplia has been enchanting audiences. In 1974, when Balanchine decided to add Copplia to NYCB's repertory, he took the opportunity to update the ballet, adding some male solos gently, more pas de deux, and a new third act.
