Puss In Boots (Cui)
''Puss in Boots'' (''Кот в сапогах'' in Cyrillic; ''Kot v sapogakh'' in transliteration) is a short opera-fairytale for children in three acts, four tableaux, composed by César Cui in 1913. The libretto was written by Marina Stanislavovna Pol'. It was premiered in Rome in 1915 under the title ''Il gatto con gli stivali''. A Soviet edition of the opera, with a revised libretto, was published in 1961. By the 1970s this opera seems to have become popular in what was then East Germany as ''Der gestiefelte Kater''.
