Griboyedov Prize
The Griboyedov Prize (Russian: Грибоедовская премия) was a Russian literary award established in 1878 by the Society of Russian Dramatists and Opera Composers to honor Alexander Griboyedov. The opening ceremony was held on 11 February (old style: 30 January), on the anniversary of the great Russian playwright's death. The prize, collected through private donations, was awarded to the best play of the year, produced in Saint Petersburg and Moscow by either Imperial Theatres or their private counterparts. Despite of the fact that the Prize was launched in 1878, it was first awarded in 1883.[1][2]
