The Bee and the Rose

Overview

The Queen Bee and her entourage appear dancing around the hive. Suddenly, a splendid rose rises in a bed of flowers, comes to life and flies off with the Queen Bee. Then the Queen of Roses returns to her original state. The Queen Bee is saddened by the loss of her beautiful companion and, after inhaling the fragrance of the roses, falls asleep. A spider spins its web over her and traps her, but a swarm of bees quickly arrives and frees their Queen. The final scene is a graceful ballet featuring charming ballerinas portraying roses and bees.
