The Ballet of Madrid’s Coppelia is a witty, colorful take on the classic comic ballet. This innovative rendition, choreographed by Eduardo Lao, reimagines the classic ballet within a futuristic, cybernetic laboratory setting, where Dr. Coppelius endeavors to create a lifelike female android. While maintaining Leo Delibes's original 1870 score, the performance infuses modern themes and aesthetics, offering a fresh perspective on the traditional narrative.
