About the show

Peter the Great, disguised as a carpenter, falls in love with Catherine, who disguises herself as her brother to take his place among drafted recruits. In a military camp, Peter mistakes her disguise for a man and orders her shot; when he realizes his error, she escapes and exposes a plot against the Tsar. Later, Peter restores Catherine’s sanity with her favorite tune and marries her.
