Extract

There were many great actors in the Imperial Theatres of Russia but between 1874 and 1916 there was one actress whose talent shone brighter than any other. This was Maria Gavrilovna Savina who, for forty years, adorned the stage of the Alexandrinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg. After she played in Shpazhinsky's popular drama, "The Enchantress," the admiring theatre-goers gave her the name she deserved—"Enchantress of the Russian Stage."
