Diva (woman singer) plays a leading role in an opera (musical play). Similarly, the thespian (actor) plays a leading role in a play.

DIVA : OPERA.

Producer : theatre
Director : Drama
Conductor : bus
Thespian : play

1. DIVA is related to OPERA as producer is related to theatre. A diva is a term used to describe a highly skilled and celebrated female opera singer, and opera is a type of theatrical performance that is typically held in a theater.

2. Producer is related to theatre as director is related to drama. A producer is responsible for overseeing the financial and organizational aspects of a theatrical production, just as a director is responsible for overseeing the artistic aspects of a drama.

3. The conductor is related to the bus. This analogy does not have a clear connection or similarity. Conductors are typically associated with leading and coordinating musicians in an orchestra or musical ensemble, whereas buses are vehicles used for transportation. There is no obvious relationship between the two terms.

4. Thespian is related to play. Thespian is a term used to describe an actor or actress, and a play is a form of dramatic performance that involves actors performing scripted dialogue. Both terms are related to the world of theater and performance.

DIVA : OPERA → A diva is a leading performer in opera.

Now let’s check each option:

Producer : theatre → A producer is important in theatre, but not a performer within theatre like a diva is in opera.
Director : drama → A director manages drama, but again, not a performer within drama.
Conductor : bus → A bus conductor is not an artistic performer; also they don’t fit the diva-opera relation.
Thespian : play → A thespian (actor) performs in a play, just like a diva performs in an opera.

So, the Correct Answer: Thespian : play.
