A Night at the Ballet: Coppelia at the University of the Arts
Post by Rachel Barclay
Have a craving for culture and romance? Check out Pennsylvania Ballet’s Coppelia, currently running through April 27th at the Merriam Theater at the University of the Arts.
A flirtatious comedy filled with mystery, laughter, and love, Coppelia is a delicious treat for all those taken under spring fever’s spell. The ballet is a tale of mischievous lovers and an eccentric toy maker who cross paths in a far off village of long ago. Mix this with the area’s fine dining and the Merriam’s romantically gothic atmosphere, and you have the recipe for a fantastic date or a new twist on girl’s night out.
The Pennsylvania Ballet is one of the leading dance companies in the country so be prepared to witness the oh-so elegant pirouettes and flying leaps that only the dancing elite have to offer. For ticket information and show times visit www.paballet.org.
