Written in 1897, with the threat of syphilis as the backdrop it explores and comments on the sexual morals of the society of fin-de-siècle Vienna.
It takes the form of a macabre ‘dance’ in which ten lovers of differing social strata are inexorably linked in a cycle of love, deceit and hypocrisy. An intricate web of relationships is formed and the various couples’ clumsy maneuvers of seduction are portrayed as both poignant and ironically humorous. The desperate struggle in the pursuit of love and happiness demonstrates an inability to communicate which reflects our own contemporary South African society.
