Dr. Coppélius, a lonely old alchemist, creates his “daughter” Coppélia a mechanical doll so lifelike that Franz, a village youth, becomes infatuated with her and sets aside his heart’s true desire, his fiancé Swanhilda. She shows him his folly by dressing as the doll, pretending to make it come to life and ultimately saving him from an untimely end at the hands of the inventor. This enchanting and comic ballet is set to the music of Léo Delibes.
