It’s a different type of work party - take a first look at Coppélia being developed at our studios 👀🎉
This is a rehearsal excerpt from the ‘Work Party’ scene, a work-in-progress for our world premiere on 14 Aug at Edinburgh International Festival. Coppélia will feature a mixture of live dance and real-time film projection on stage - which is why you’ll see First Artist and in-residence photographer Rimbaud Patron filming the dancers as they move on stage.
The innovative new version of the ballet, which here tells the story of Silicon Valley’s hottest inventor Dr Coppélius and his new AI creation Coppélia, is choreographed and directed by UK-based duo Morgann Runacre-Temple and Jessica Wright (known as Jess and Morgs), building on their previous film works for Scottish Ballet, Tremble and The Secret Theatre. The choreography will highlight Jess and Morgs’ trademark quintessentially dry humour, with sharp, witty solos and stunning full company routines combined with wall-to-wall projections and cinema screens, featuring live film shot onstage by one of the performers.
Have you got your tickets for Coppelia yet? This is a work party you’ll definitely not want to miss!
