lisa pavane is exquisite! even though dancers today may have 'better' technique, a lot of artistry has been lost. her whole performance as swanilda was as near perfect as you can get. i encourage anybody who hasn't seen the full production to definitely watch it!
All the other versions I've seen were like "I know I'm Swanhilda, who knows she's acting like Coppelia. Oh my, I am a doll. Look at me dance" and so on. It's so machanic. But she dances like an actual DOLL.
This IS a beautiful production! the costumes are divine too. Anyone know where/if we can hire these- or similar? need for a small New Zealand production.
yes, the aussie version is definetely the best! i have this video at home and ive almost worn it out from watching it so much! i love this ballet - one of my all time favourites. and i dont think anyone could do better than lisa pavane and colin peasly. they rock!!
I totally agree. I have it on DVD and have watched it coutless times. I love the portrayal of the doll "Coppelia" in the first act. A breathtaking and well executed performance. A1 production!
i love this ballet! i was in it with the english youth and i was a schotish doll in 2005! lol omg i have the dvd of this! its brilliant! send in some more scenes of it!
