A beloved classical ballet by Léo Delibes

Nona Ballet is proud to present Coppélia, a beloved classical ballet by Léo Delibes that tells the story of a mysterious doll, mistaken identities, and village celebrations. Lighthearted and theatrical, Coppélia has long been a staple of classical ballet repertoire.

At Nona Ballet, this production is approached as an extension of training. Students work toward a staged performance while continuing their regular technical development, gaining experience in classical repertoire, musicality, and rehearsal discipline as part of their ballet education.
