History

The period of development is the end of the 19th century. The scene represents the public park of a Central European town on a day of celebration. On stage a small band....

Everyone wants to dance with the Girl: Soldier, Sergeant, Lieutenant, Captain, Colonel and General, in the hope of stealing a kiss from her. Everyone makes use of the authority sanctioned by his rank to replace the dancer who preceded him, trying, with different methods suggested by his own experience, to seduce the Maiden.

Each dance reflects, with poetry and psychological sense, the personality of the graduate on duty, from soldier to general.
