^ Stanislavsky relocated the action in pre-Revolutionary France and trimmed its five-act structure to eleven scenes, employing a revolve to quicken scene-changes.[15] Aleksandr Golovin designed the production.[15] It was a great success, garnering ten curtain calls on opening night. Thanks to the cohesive unity and rhythmic qualities of the production, it is recognised as one of Stanislavski's major achievements.[16]

^ In the aftermath of these events Beaumarchais was stripped of his civil rights in 1773.[22] He eventually regained them by pledging allegiance to Louis XV and Louis XVI and carrying out secret missions for the government.[3] His rights were restored in 1778[23]
