THE STORY

The story opens with a White family going through a divorce. The wife leaves her daughter and husband. No reason is given or blame assigned, here.

She gently moves him to release that longing and focus on their budding relationship.

The choreography moves through the courtship, proposal and marriage rather quickly. As the newlyweds speed off to their honeymoon, the children are left with some unseen relative, and continue to play amicably.

They know it hurts, however, and have no one to vent their hurt at except each other. This, of course, causes strain between the parents, who find that they also are receiving fresh rejection from society at large. They understand fully what is going on.

The kids, meanwhile, have made up and have not yet ingrained the strain--once again treating each other civilly. The adults were choreographed to represent the
