THE FAIRY TALE TREATS
OF VIENNA LIGHT LIFE

Many of the plays of Arthur Schnitz-
Ter deal with that manifestation of
Viennese life which is known in the
light-hearted capitol as "Das Suse Ma
del" the sweet girls. or the demi-
mondaine of Vienna. A representative
of this type is the central figure in
''The Fairy Tale" by Schnitzler, which
Nine. Nazimova will present at Ham
burgers Majestic theater during the
coming week.
Fanny THEREIN is n Viennese actress.
In her youth she has had an affair
with DR.. Frederick Witte and the
greater portion of the first act of "The
Fairy Tale" develops the environment
of reproof and restraint in which the
actress lives. The first scene passes
at the THEREIN house during an "at
home.' Into this gathering are intro
duced the old mother, unaware of her
daughters lapse, "who sits around
looking at everything and seeing moth
ing" and the elder sister who disap-
proves of Fanny and who, being about
to marry for his money a rather un-
pleasant old gentleman, fears that
Fanny's stain on the family name may
cause trouble.
Also conspicuous in the company is
young author. Theodore Denner, who
brings an unexpected and glorifying
light into Fanny's darkened soul by
declaring. in moment of fervid argu-
ment:
Women have allowed themselves to
be fooled for centuries, as Fanny has,
because in our immeasurable vanity,
we men must be the only and the
first. 1t is time that the world should
be free from the fairy tale of the fall
en- woman"
Out of this new hope springs Fam
ny's love and finally alteration of Dem
ner Unfortunately, he finds that it is
not so easy to live up to his fine the
ories. The trouble starts<during Wis
if from Mr.. Witte, Fanny's former
lover. In a talk on generalities, Witte
declared that he has never been any
woman's first love, and .Denner later
forces Fanny to admit that he was
not first with her.
Every incident that follows serves to
convince Denner that his theory was a
theory only Fanny has made a tre-
mendous hit in a new play, and is Of
fered a long contract at st. Petersburg.
To accept it means to leave Denner.
She makes Denner decide whether she
shall go or stay, and when he advises
her going, she throws back at him his
own words about the fairy tale.
Eyes, yes, perhaps it is a fairy tale,'
he cries, "but there is another one, a
thousand times more treacherous and
deceptive-the fairy tale of the woman
who reformed"
