Coppelia at St James

As Eleanor is back for Easter, it  was a good reason to enjoy the ballet again, and so we went to see a ballet that we enjoyed in the past.

The theatre was not full which seems to be a sign of the times, be it the arts festival, or on as different tack, the rugby at the stadium.

We were sat to one side which meant we could not see the balcony scenes, important of the first act-somewhat annoying. However, the performance was good and act 2, set in the workshop when the toys or mannequins come to life was really well done. The lead ballerina did not have a perfect night however.

Still it is great to got to these things and the company was good.
