JOIN CLEVELAND BALLET AT THEIR WORLD PREMIERE OF COPPELIA MAY 13TH AND 14TH 

 

Cleveland Ballet is pleased to announce that tickets are now available for
their commissioned, new version of the comic ballet Coppélia. This world
premiere production marks Cleveland Ballet’s second performance in its debut
season at the Ohio Theatre.  As Cleveland’s only resident ballet company,
Cleveland Ballet boasts a company of seven core dancers and four
apprentices. As a professional ballet company, dancers rehearse full time
with Cleveland Ballet for the entire season. In addition, choreographer
Oller builds dances and dramatic moments around Cleveland Ballet company
members, ensuring a strong and unique-to-Cleveland world premiere
production.

 

Coppélia tells the story of Swanhilda and Frantz whose carefree romance is
threatened when Frantz becomes infatuated with the beautiful Coppélia.
Frantz does not know that his heart belongs to a lifesize doll created by
the town’s toy maker Dr. Coppélius. Because Franz’s passion for Coppelia is
so great he pushes aside his true love, Swanhilda. Eager to win back Franz’s
heart, Swanhilda dresses like the doll Coppélia fooling both men into
believing the doll has come to life. The danger mounts as Dr. Coppélius
seeks to keep the living doll hidden from the world while Frantz tries to
run away with his new-found love.
