The Coppelia Project, which has been touring as part of the Accessible Arts Program, explores issues of perfection, acceptance, and tolerance.
As an inventor, Dr. Coppelius brings three clown ballerinas to life but is ultimately unhappy with his creations. A young boy acts as a foil to the
Dr., discovering the unique qualities of each, including one actress whose actual physical disability is showcased to illustrate the lesson that we
must accept people as they are, overcome obstacles and celebrate the uniqueness of us all.
