Graduation Ball - A comedy set in a fashionable Viennese girls' school. An end-of-term dance, to which the cadets of a neighbouring military academy have been invited, begins with formal politeness and some shyness. Natural liveliness and youthful high spirits soon break through however - particularly when the headmistress and the elderly general are discovered to have embarked on a flirtation.
