The "Giselle" Theatre is a commissioned piece. It depicts the second act of the classical ballet condensed into a performance of only eight minutes. To our knowledge it is the only computer-automated production of the ballet in the world.

The choreographed performance takes place on the stage of a gilded miniature baroque-style theatre.As the music begins, the footlights come on and the red velvet curtain opens to reveal a moonlit forest. Albrecht and Giselle begin to 'dance' individual solos and duets as the lights change signalling the entrance of the Wilis. The six-inch figures move on single tracks enacting the drama until dawn comes up heralding the approaching day & the Wilis withdraw. The lights fade on Giselle & Albrecht as the curtain closes.
