Spring of 1828—Domeyer's Restaurant, in the Prater Act I. Kuppelweiser, Schwind and Vogl have invited their penniless friend, Franz Schubert, to join them at dinner. Bellabruna, who has married Count Scharntoff "for his wealth and title," becomes the topic of discus¬sion. She enters with her husband. She is looking for Schober, a wealthy baron with whom she thinks herself in love. While Vogl, Schwind and Kuppel are out looking for Schober, "to warn him," Schubert enters, and soon strikes a bargain with Scharntoff for a song. Christian Kranz then enters, looking for his daughters who have been out on a secret interview with their sweethearts. The artist friends, having become interested in the young lovers, divert Kranz from his course by giving him plenty of wine and telling him that his daughter Mitzi has come to arrange for singing lessons with Schubert. Schubert, however, falls really in love with Mitzi, and Mitzi becomes enfatuated with him. When the elder sisters, Fritzi and Kitzi, return with Binder and Erkmann, Kranz is pursuaded to consider kindly their request for marriage. Act II. Three months later. Kranz's home. The double wedding is being celebrated. Kranz is still full of wine. Bellabruna, hearing that Schober loves Mitzi, has come on the pretext of wanting her bracelet repaired. She enquires at once about Mitzi and Schober, and warns Mitzi against a "fickle and faithless lover" whose initials are F. S. Learning that Bellabruna and Schober are at the Kranz home, Scharntoff sends a detective to shadow them. Mitzi will have no more to do with Schubert, thinking that F. S. meant Franz Schubert; but she becomes interested in Schober. This in¬terest develops into profound and mutual love. Art III. Two months later. Schubert's lodgings. Schubert is too ill to go with his friends to hear his own symphony played in celebration of his ap¬pointment to the music society. Scharntoff has challenged Schober to duel. Bellabruna rushes in, to have Schubert pursuade Schober to leave Vienna. After all leave but Schubert and his housekeeper, Count Scharntoff enters to return the composer's song "to its rightful owner" bfeore the duel. Schubert, realizing that Mitzi and Schober are in love with each other, pre¬vails upon Scharntoff to withdraw from the duel. He then sends for Schober. Meanwhile Mitzi arrives and offers to care for Schubert in his illness. But when Schober comes, Schubert joins their hands, just as the crowd returns from the concert. Kranz, too, comes, looking for Mitzi. He is delighted, however, to learn that she and Schober are to be married. ORIGINAL MITZI IS A FRIEND OF THE The Bluebird ARE YOU?
