Set in a quaint European village, this beloved ballet follows the story of the eccentric inventor, Doctor Coppélius.

When Swanhilda, Franz's fiancée, decides to investigate and discovers the truth, she devises a playful scheme to reveal Franz's folly by impersonating the doll herself. Love ultimately triumphs, culminating in a joyous celebration of the lovers' union.
Featuring lively music by Léo Delibes and choreography by Artistic Director Salwa Rizkalla, inspired by Arthur Saint-Léon, this production showcases renowned guest artists in the lead roles.
