Stryx thematically referred to
Hell,
devils and
underworld. The scenography featured elements resembling
Middle Ages-like gloomy castles and caves. The show featured acting as well as musical performances from such artists as
Amanda Lear,
Asha Puthli,
Gal Costa,
Grace Jones and
Patty Pravo. The musical part was divided into a number of smaller parts, with each part featuring a performance from one specific artist, for example Asha Puthli in
Indian Stryx, Amanda Lear in
Sexy Stryx or Grace Jones in
Rumstryx. The show was produced in the
disco era, therefore this genre dominates the musical background of
Stryx. The show caused many controversies in more conservative societies, mainly because of its
devilish theme and referring to
underworld as well as exposing
nudity. Due to numerous protests the show was taken off the broadcast and the production of following episodes was cancelled. In addition to six released episodes, there is an unreleased seventh one that has never been officially aired on television. == Personnel ==
