KVN Dance Company presents

Coppélia

Classic Remixed: Classic Reborn

National Dance Award Nominee for outstanding creative contribution.

’It is difficult to appreciate the depth of Kevan’s talent… his credits certainly show a huge breadth of work in many and varied styles…’’ Sir Trevor Nunn

KVN Dance Company presents Kevan Allen’s reimagined version of the beloved classical ballet Coppélia, following its successful run in London. The innovative approach of this new production fuses together a range of dance styles from classical to contemporary and street, with the original full classical Delibes score imaginatively re-worked, remixed and adapted to compliment this.

While the traditional ballet focuses on Dr. Coppélius, Swanhilda and the life-size clockwork doll that comes between them, this retelling will address his intent on creating the doll and how that impacts on his relationship with the wider community of villagers.

KVN Dance Company was founded in 2017 by renowned director and choreographer Kevan Allen who has created work on stages around the world for a range of creatives including Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber, Sir Trevor Nunn, and Kylie Minogue. The Company aims to bring a diverse mix of choreographic styles and dance forms together to create original and inspiring works that cross all genres of dance and introduce Kevan’s eclectic and innovative style to new audiences.
