ABSTRACT
Throne:' and this scene and the scene at the inn formed the first act. Presurnably because stagehands required time to change the sets between the death scene and the Kromy Forest scene, the latter was presenred as a separate fifth act. The scene in Pimen's cell was omitted entirely, as were various bits and pieces from the scene in the Czar's quarters, from the two Polish scenes, and from the Kromy Forest scene.
