The Pocket Opera Company allows a multicolored ocean of musical flowers to bloom. Arias from four centuries lead the listeners into a labyrinth of opera, tempting them with magical voices. From all angles and through iridescent images, the first kiss - the most enticing token of love of all - is played out in its transcendental seduction, from the initially coy game of two lovers to the gory bite of a vampire. Dreams - of day and night alike - come true, performed by the ensemble of the Pocket Opera Company and musically filtered by the seductive tones of a saxophone quartet.
A frivolous musical adventure through the world of arias, loosely based upon the antique satyrical moral novel "Satyricon" by the Roman author, Titus Petronius. With his protagonist, the student Encolpius, Petronius paints a picture of the extravagant, decadent life of Roman society. Encolpius, a good-for-nothing and freeloader , accompanied by his boy toy Giton and the indefatigable poet Eumolpus, suffers a crushing sexual defeat at the hands of the local beauty Circe. Only after laborious treatments and at the conclusion of the story does Encolpius appear to recover. However, medical attempts to heal him plunge him into a new existential crisis.
