The Death of Ivan the Terrible (Смерть Иоанна Грозного) is a historical drama by Aleksey Konstantinovich Tolstoy, written in blank verse in 1863 and first published in January 1866, and produced at the Moscow Art Theatre on 29 September 1899. The play is the first part of a trilogy followed by Tsar Fyodor Ioannovich and Tsar Boris. These plays were banned by the censor because they dramatize the story of Ivan IV of Russia.
