The ShowThe intersection of pop and classicalWhat happens when a tragic grand opera is forced to share the stage with a troupe of commedians? — Ariadne auf Naxos is what! This classic 'show within a show' opera sets up one of the most memorable clashes of culture you will ever see. One of the most fascinating and beautiful of Strauss's works. Ariadne (as befits our season) is a study in contrast between the classical approach to art and the fast paced, off-the-cuff world of modern entertainment. The incredible soprano Marie Plette stars as the immortal Greek heroine (and diva under duress)! * Approximate running time: just under 2 hours > see video clips |
