The Tsar's Bride
The Tsar's Bride (Russian: Царская невеста, Tsarskaja nevesta) is an historical verse drama in four acts by Lev Mei from 1849.[1] Fifty years later Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov used the play as the basis for his opera of the same name.[1] As with Mei's other Russian historical drama, The Maid of Pskov (1859), this play is set in the time of Ivan the Terrible.
