Toy-maker Dr Coppélius wants to bring his mechanical doll Coppélia to life - all he needs is the right spell.
When he leaves Coppélia on his workshop balcony, she soon causes a stir - particularly in the heart of young lover Franz and the jealous mind of his fiancée, Swanilda.
Comic chaos is then unleashed when humans and automatons collide in Dr Coppélius’s spooky toyshop.
This critically-acclaimed enchanting production, with music by Léo Delibes, will be enjoyed by all the family.
