In a beautiful little village lived young ladies and young lads. There also lived a very old man---Dr. Coppelius who is a toy-maker.
One day, a beautiful girl named Coppelia was sitting on the balcony reading a book. Another beautiful girl called Swanilda waved to her. But Coppelia paid no notice and didn't move. Meanwhile，a handsome boy called Franz also waved to her. She waved back. Franz loved her at once!
That morning, everyone danced happily, no one ever remembered Coppelia.
In the night, Dr Coppelius lost his key. Swanilda found it by accident. She and her friends sneaked into Dr. Coppelius house. At the same time, Franz was climbing a ladder. He desired to see Coppelia.
The girls saw a lot of toys in Dr. Coppelius's workshop. Just then, Dr. Coppelius came back and shooed all the girls out except Swanilda who was hinding in the cupboard and in there she found out that Coppelia was only a DOLL!
Franz climed up to the window and got in. Dr. Coppelius coaxed him to drink too much poison so Franz seemed dead. Swanilda quickly got changed in the cupboard and dressed herself like Coppelia the doll. Coppelius tried to make Coppelia into a real person by magic, though he didn't realize that this doll was pretended by Swanilda! It seemed the magic had worked a little bit. And then, Franz woke up and joined. At last, Dr Coppelius found he had been tricked by Swanilda and Coppelia would never ever never be a REAL person.
Eventually，Of course, Swanilda and Franz got married and lived happily ever after.
