Maria Stuarda tells the dramatic story of the intense rivalry between Mary, Queen of Scots, and Queen Elizabeth I of England. Set against a backdrop of political intrigue and personal animosity, the opera explores themes of power, jealousy, and tragedy.

Mary Stuart has been imprisoned by her cousin, Elizabeth, who views her as a threat to the English throne. As Mary languishes in captivity, various characters, including the compassionate Talbot and the ambitious Cecil, debate her fate. Elizabeth's favorite, Leicester, also has deep feelings for Mary, complicating the already tense situation.
