R. Strauss: Anadne on Naxos is the latest work of the company, premiered on 14th of February 2008 in Theater &TD - CHU in Zagreb. On the interface between cho reographic and opera activation, using the Strauss' opera material as a base for cho reographic activation, Ariadne on Naxos is at the same time a reaction on an opera model and its staging it works intensively on the line of meta-musicality popness-transitional body, simultaneously lay-outing the demanding and intense Strauss' opera which deals both with theatre mechanisms as such with the myth of Ariadne.
