Swanilda and Franz are in love...until a beautiful stranger, the daughter of the magician Dr Coppelius, appears in town. But she is not what she seems, and Swanilda must rescue Franz from the magician's sinister workshop - with the help of some fancy footwork!

This sparkling tale of magic and mischief, with its irresistible melodies and 'living dolls', is amusing fun for the whole family. Inspired by E.T.A. Hoffmann's stories, Coppelia features exquisite costumes by master designer Kristian Fredrikson. 

Kristian Fredrikson's costumes and sets are sumptuous, the dancing is neat and engaging, and children in particular will enjoy the story. - The Age
