Known as the greatest and ‘most perfect’ ballet of all time, the two-act Giselle celebrates its 170th birthday in 2011. As fresh and as moving today as it was when first presented at the Paris Opera in 1841. A masterpiece that never fails to inspire with its timeless story of the betrayal of naïve peasant girl Giselle, by betrothed Prince in disguise, Albrecht and of her tragic death of a broken heart and forgiveness beyond the grave. The Magic Toyshop is loosely based on La Boutique Fantasque by Leonid Massine, to music by Rossini. English, American and Indian families arrive to see the work of the master doll maker, and are smitten at how life-like the dolls seem to be! Lots of antics ensue as some of the doll mechanisms seem to have a mind of their own!! It’s anybody’s business as to what is going to happen as the American and Indian families want to split the Wedding Couple Dolls and take one each. Beautiful music and delightful and entertaining story for the whole family.
