Lighting by Jean Rosenthal Hagar, whose elder sister is a spinster, forsees the same fate for herself. When the man she unrequitedly loves seems to show pre""erence for her younger sister, Hagar in distraction gives herself to one she does not love. The resulting crisi s, however, unites her with the man she really loves. The ballet is set in the period around 1900 because it was then that Schoenberg composed the music.
