Program
While preparing to perform a new tragedy, "Ariadne of Naxos," at the mansion of a wealthy Viennese family, they are informed that "a comedy will be performed after the performance," and the owner of the mansion imposes the impossible task of "performing a tragedy and a comedy at the same time," leading to a slapstick drama involving the composer and the performers. The second half of the opera begins with a slapstick performance by the composer and performers.
The second half of the opera, "Ariadne of Naxos," is performed as a play within a play.
The island of Naxos is an isolated Greek island. Ariadne has been abandoned by her husband and wants to die. The clown and Zerbinetta encourage her, but to no avail. Then Bacchus (the god of wine) appears. Bacchus kisses Ariadne and her sadness vanishes. The curtain falls as death gives way to life and a new love is born.
