$11.99

Gitta Stadelmann ist die Tochter des schrulligen Tiermalers Sebastian Stadelmann. Gitta singt und tanzt während der Hausarbeit und wird durch das offene Fenster zufällig von Georg Harding, einem Operettenkomponisten, beobachtet. Dieser ist begeistert von der Vorführung und Gittas Talent und schmeichelt sich bei Gitta ein. Er verspricht, ihr gegen den Widerstand des Vaters zu einer Karriere am Theater zu verhelfen. Harding will, dass der Theaterdirektor Bommerlund Gitta für die von Harding komponierte Operette „Maske in Blau“ engagiert. Bis zum Engagement von Gitta müssen aber noch einige Hürden überwunden werden, verantwortlich dafür sind der Textdichter Stanzinger und der Etagenchef Seehauser. 

Gitta Stadelmann is the daughter of the quirky animal painter Sebastian Stadelmann.  Gitta sings and dances while doing her housework and just happens to be observed through the open window by Georg Harding, an operetta composer.  He's thrilled with her display and her talent and tries to curry favor with Gitta.  He promises to help her start a career in the theater in spite of her father's objections.  The director Bommerlund wants to engage Gitta to play in the operetta "Mask in Blue", which was composed by Harding.  But before Gitta's able to appear in the operetta, a few hurdles have to be cleared, the removal of which will be accomplished by librettist Stanzinger and the stage boss Seehauser.
