The Lead Role – 2

8 hrs. 33 min.

Language Russian

Author Pavel Smolin

Narrator Andrey Finikov

A budding actor was incredibly lucky to land a secondary but very important role of Grand Duke Georgiy Alexandrovich Romanov in a series about the youth of Nicholas II. The last evening in his hometown was supposed to be the start of a new life—the life of a film star of all-Russian scale—but the universe had different plans: our hero woke up on the cruiser “Memory of Azov” in the middle of the Eastward voyage of Tsarevich Nikolai. He woke up in the body of the very actor he was supposed to play in the series. In the most literal sense, he “immersed himself in the role”!

P.S. Authentic speeches of the characters of the late 19th century can’t be found here, but I’m trying to add color.
