Scottish Ballet, Coppélia - Autumn 2022

My daughter and I went this afternoon. 

 

I didn't feel engaged early on - I should have read the reviews to figure what to expect. But then it picked up for me and by the end I thought it was terrific, relevant (if a bit obvious) and unlike anything I've seen. I loved the use of mixed media, I thought it was very effectively and cleverly done. I also liked the music. All in all an excellent afternoon entertainment. The audience response was muted during the performance, there were no obvious clapping moments - but the curtain call was very enthusiastic with a number of people in the 1st circle standing.

I wonder if costume designers would be prepared to appear in their designs in front of a couple of thousand or even just a thousand people 🤔
