Continental Ballet Company
Minnesota-based Continental Ballet Company will present Coppelia, a full-evening 3-act production of a 130-year-old favorite. The story of Coppelia concerns a mysterious and faintly diabolical inventor who makes a life-sized dancing doll. If Mary Shelley's Frankenstein represents the dark side of the theme of scientist as creator of life, Coppelia is the light side, mixing razor-sharp story-mime with bravura classical dance. MasterClass available
Romanza
Romanza, Canada's own 'three tenors', takes the tenor repertoire to new heights, reinvigorating opera hits, popular folksongs, and well-loved ballads.
