Gaetano Donizetti: Maria Stuarda Hungarian premiere at National Theater of Szeged

Maria Stuarda is a concert-like opera in three acts, two parts, in Italian - written by Giuseppe Bardani based on the work of the same title by Friedrich Schiller.

Elizabeth is holding Mary, the Queen of Scotland captive but postponing her execution because she knows it would gain even more enemies for England. The Earl of Leicester, whom Elizabeth is still in love with, is trying to ask for amnesty for Mary. This infuriates the Queen of England so much that she immediately signs the death sentence.
