Evening performances will feature the innovative contemporary ballet, Coppélia.  This whimsical presentation begins when Dr. Coppélius creates a beautiful life-sized dancing doll.  The comedic love story unfolds with local villager Nathanael becoming so infatuated with the doll that he casts aside his sweetheart Klara, who enacts her revenge by dressing as the doll and pretending to come to life.

The young people's production The Emperor's New Clothes is a delightfully humorous retelling of the well-loved fairytale, and the daytime performances are an excellent introduction to ballet for little ones

 Come out and enjoy full scale classical ballet for the whole family in a beautiful park setting!  All performances are free of charge.  Bring a chair or a blanket and experience ballet in a summer event that is not to be missed!
