A rich man's party: the performers of two different shows wait backstage before providing the evening's entertainment... but then there is a sudden change of plans. The rich man decides that the ‘opera seria’ and the variety show should be performed as one piece ...and it all has to be ready before the fireworks begin.

Prepare yourself for an evening of fun and musical thrills in this masterpiece by Strauss and Hofmannsthal as they attempt to answer the question: can one make good are and good entertainment?

This project is dedicated in loving memory to Bette McNaught.
