Coppélia, considered one of the greatest comic ballets of the 19th Century, is the tale of a mad inventor and the life-like doll he creates. This 1978 Live From Lincoln Center rebroadcast features the New York City Ballet’s original leading dancers, Patricia McBride, Helgi Tomasson, and Shaun O’Brien.
