Elizabeth the Queen was a 1930 Broadway three-act play written in blank verse by

Maxwell Anderson, produced by the Theatre Guild, directed by Philip Moeller and with scenic and costume design

by Lee Simonson. It ran for 147 performances from November 3, 1930, to March 1931 at the

Guild Theatre. The starring roles were played by Lynn Fontanne as Elizabeth and Alfred Lunt as Lord Essex.

It was adapted into a film The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex (1939) directed by Michael Curtiz and starring Bette Davis, Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland and a television movie, Elizabeth the Queen (1968) directed by George Schaefer and starring Judith Anderson and Charlton Heston.

On radio, it has been adapted three times: on Matinee Theater (December 17, 1944) with Judith Evelyn and Victor Jory; on The Theatre Guild on the Air (December 2, 1945) with Lynn Fontanne and Alfred Lunt and on Best Plays (November 9, 1952) with Eva La Gallienne.

Plot

The play revolves around the love affair but also jealousy between the aging Queen Elizabeth I of England and her much younger suitor Robert Devereux, 2nd Earl of Essex.
