The plot of the new production, the libretto of which is written by Serhiy Kon, is based on the story of the creation of a perfect Doll, which was supposed to help the wizard Coppelius in seizing power over humanity. However, the doll Coppelia, having received not only a human likeness, but also a soul and feelings thanks to the magic stone, managed to resist Coppelius and with the help of Franz saved the city and its inhabitants from the evil thoughts of the Sorcerer.
This is a fantastic story that awakens sincere feelings - humanity, benevolence, sensitive attitude towards others. I sincerely believe that in the play "Doll. The new story of Coppelia" both adults and children will find something of their own, something close to their sincerity and immediacy. And remember, only sincere feelings, selfless friendship, faith in oneself and one's own strength can turn even a "doll" into a person!" - says Serhiy Kon about the production. Bright scenery, original costumes, created by the young artist of the theater Maria Grabchenko, will definitely interest the audience of any age. Performance for children and adults.
