Titova Lyudmila
Titova Lyudmila
Lyudmila Vladimirovna Titova, People's Artist of Russia, was born on February 28, 1960. In 1983, she graduated from Mikhail Shchepkin Higher Theatre School (the course of Yuri Solomin) and joined the Maly Theatre’s company.
Endowed with tremendous magnetism, imagination and confidence, Titova managed to reveal the many facets of her talent over the years. Lyudmila’s range is immense; she can do dramas, and comedies all with the class and intensity. Her rich inner world allows Titova to naturally exist in diverse roles and genres.
Titova is considered an actress of «character». Her Roxane in «Cyrano de Bergerac» by Edmond Rostand is gorgeous. With filigree precision Lyudmila plays one of the most difficult roles in the world’s repertoire - every gesture is fully defined finished, every intonation is well thought out, every impulse of a loving soul is expressive.
In «Two for the Seesaw» based on William Gibson's play, which ran on the Chamber stage of the Maly Theater and where the distance between the performer and the auditorium is reduced to a minimum and even the slightest actor's falseness is impossible, the audience was captivated by Titova’s performance. She managed to reveal Gittel Mosca’s rich inner world of morals, feelings, and ideals and expose an inescapable tragedy of loneliness, and the theme of the eternal pursuit of elusive happiness.
Titova’s portrayal of Elena Andreevna («The Wood Demon» by Anton Chekhov) perfectly blends into the unstable, uneven rhythm of the play. All her actions are logically justified and naturally determined. Titova feels exceptionally comfortable in the poetic world of Chekhov's drama.
Beautiful and talented actress shows off her comic talent in «Wolves and Sheep» by Alexander Ostrovsky, where she plays a charming and unscrupulous Glafira, seeking a rich husband. This work is the universally recognized benefit of Lyudmila Titova. The actress plays lightly, gracefully and cheerfully.
Titova’s aristocratic profile, her manners are especially evident in her portrayal of Yulia Tugina («The Last Sacrifice» by Alexander Ostrovsky). Abandoned by a young lover, she finds peace with an elderly merchant Flor Fedulich Pribytkov. This role brought Lyudmila a well-deserved success and recognition, as well as a Golden Lyre Award in the nomination «The Most Muscovite Actress». The duet of Titova and Vasily Bochkaryov, who played Pribytkov, many theatre critics branded as the best romantic duet of the season.
The role of Vassa Zheleznova in the early version of Maxim Gorky's play might be considered a key milestone in Lyudmila’s creative development as an artist. The tradeswoman played by Titova is a woman of iron will, whose family’s well-being is built on a crime. Her life motto - «The end justifies the means» - evokes both fear and compassion. «Vassa Zheleznova. The First Version» became a significant event in Moscow’s cultural life and its success should be credited to a large extent to its leading actress Lyudmila Titova.
Lyudmila Titova’s television and film credits include: «The Shore of His Life», «The Split», «Beauty salon»,«A Dear Friend of Long Forgotten Years...», «Balzac Age, or All Men are Bast...», «Life and Death of Lyonka Panteleyev», «The House on the Embankment,» «The Bride to Order,» «The Imperfect Woman,» «No One But Us,» and others.
