It wasn't an entirely Filipino troupe...guest artist Yoko Morishita; then Japan's Prima Ballerina, danced Coppelia.
Just days before my 30th birthday and a couple of weeks before the Revolution, I took my then fiancee (now my wife), her sister and another friend to see Coppelia at the CCP (Cultural Centre of the Philippines)...I had seen the Australian Ballet's performance about ten months earlier at the Sydney Opera House...and that is why the Waltz from Coppelia is to be used as BG music in the flight to Manila seq. near the beginning of Manila Envelope.
