Coppélia

Dr. Coppélius, the village’s eccentric inventor, fabricates a life-sized doll he names Coppélia, with such humanistic precision and beauty that it misleads the entire town into believing that Coppélia is a real girl. What ensues is a fantastical turn of events: Franz, the boyfriend of Swanhilda, becomes enamored by Coppélia’s beauty and Swanilda is filled with envy as she perceives her place as the reigning village belle is being threatened. A serendipitous turn of events unravels the tangled web around Coppélia and the villagers rejoice with the wedding of Swanhilda and Franz.

Meadow

Meadow, choreographed by Eric Hampton, evokes rich visages of a golden meadow and the endearing charm of folklife. Hampton, MYB’s beloved choreographer in residence in the 1990’s, used Joseph Canteloube’s exhilarating ‘Songs of the Auvergne’ in this deeply resonate ballet. This is the 5th re-staging of ‘Meadow’ on MYB’s advanced students. Past performers have spoken of this work as a defining opportunity for them in their development as artists.
