Coppélia features the ground-breaking production and choreography of Roland PETIT and was first brought to life by the Ballet National de Marseille in 1975. Whereas the Coppélia performed around the world until that time had been stuck in a 19th century style, this production brought the timeless themes of life and love to the fore, giving the characters the feel of our time. The unique humor and chic French taste featured on this stage, there is a memorable ending that will leave you engrossed, with a message that won't fade with repeat viewing.
This production was live-streamed without audiences in May 2021, following the cancellations of all performances, and got more than 167,000 viewers through four dates. This time, please enjoy the French chic ballet in live!
