The new artistic director of the Oleg Tabakov Theater (TOT), Vladimir Mashkov, opened the theater season with a gathering of the troupe, at which a small scandal occurred. Tabakov’s widow, actress Marina Zudina, left the meeting in tears, and the newly appointed director removed her son from all roles in the theater.

“Snuffbox” opened its 33rd season. At a meeting of the troupe, the theater artists were informed about the upcoming changes in work. So, Mashkov decided to divide the artists of the Moscow Art Theater. Chekhov and “Tabakerki”, which under Tabakov were used in two theaters at once.

Marina Zudina did not come to the opening of the season at the Moscow Art Theater, but was present during the meeting at TOT. It is possible that the actress left the Moscow Art Theater, finally moving to Tabakerka. According to behind-the-scenes conversations, allegedly after the arrival of a new artistic director, they began to harass her at the theater. Chekhov. But it’s not a fact that the actress’s transition will actually happen, since Mashkov removed Pavel Tabakov from all performances.

The actress did not wait for the end of the meeting and left early. In an interview in the press, Zudina has already shared her impressions of the decision of the new artistic director of Tabakerka.

“Even if the theater is called the Oleg Tabakov Theater, this does not mean that Marina Zudina or Pavel Tabakov will always be involved. Pavel is actively filming and has interesting projects. I also finished working on the series, this is an adaptation of the American series “The Good Wife,” said the artist.

The cultural community has long been discussing the innovations that Mashkov was going to introduce in the theater. Until recently, many thought that the ideas would remain unrealized, but the new director of the theater, apparently, decided to bring them to life.

Among the future changes in the theater is the unification of the troupe and students of the Tabakov theater school. According to the new artistic director, this is necessary so that the current artists feel unity with those who will join the troupe in the coming years. In addition, from this year, each course at the school will be assigned curators, each of whom will be personally responsible for their students.

Among other things, at the troupe’s meeting, Mashkov said that “Tabakerka” continues to be modernized. In particular, he mentioned the contribution of the Moscow government to the development of the theater. For example, in November the theater will open a unique space - a mirrored foyer in a building on Sukharevskaya, near which it will be organized the Square of the Sun, where there will be a sculpture of a giant atom, and next to it - a sculpture of Oleg Tabakov.

“We are in full swing modernizing on Sukharevka, our historical basement on Chaplygina, and I wouldn’t have been able to cope if it weren’t for Sobyanin and Pechatnikov. You and I have a unique opportunity - we have an empire that was created by the Master - Oleg Pavlovich. We are self-sufficient, we are adults, and our goal is one - success! And we have no other task other than to become better,” said Mashkov.

Vladimir Lvovich Mashkov was born on November 27, 1963 in Tula. In the early 1980s, he entered the Faculty of Natural Sciences (department of biology) of Novosibirsk University, but a year later, having changed his mind, he began studying at the Novosibirsk Theater School, from where he was expelled in 1984 for fighting. A little later, he came to the Moscow Art Theater School to take the course of Mikhail Tarkhanov, but, for a number of reasons, he graduated from this educational institution with the course of Oleg Tabakov in 1990.

Mashkov has been playing at the Oleg Tabakov Theater since its official opening in March 1987. Among the fifteen roles played by the actor in “Snuffbox” in 1987-1999, Abram Schwartz, the Jewish father from Alexander Galich’s play “Sailor’s Silence,” stands out. The actor played him while still a student at the Studio School, and in 1990 the amazing and unforgettable image of the elder Schwartz appeared on the stage of the “basement” theater.

At the same time, Mashkov played the Mayor in Sergei Gazarov’s play “The Inspector General”. The performance did not run long, but thanks to the many excellent acting and director's work, it was remembered by theatergoers.

In May 1991, Mashkov played the role of Sergeant Toomey in the legendary play “Biloxi Blues,” as it is now called.

In 1992, having received permission from Tabakov to rehearse independently, Mashkov began work on his first performance as a director - “Finest Hour in Local Time” with Yevgeny Mironov in the title role. Tabakov liked the result of the “extracurricular” activities so much that the play was accepted into the repertoire and ran with constant success for eight years.

In the wake of this success, Mashkov took Mironov in his next production - “The Passion of Bumbarash”. The musical performance based on Gaidar's early works with lyrics by Yuli Kim and music by Vladimir Dashkevich was not to the taste of critics, but became a real theatrical hit. It ran for 18 years and was played 233 times.

The actor’s third production, “The Deadly Number,” based on the play by Oleg Antonov, became no less popular, in which the roles of clowns were played by Andrei Smolyakov, Sergei Belyaev, Vitaly Egorov and Andrei Panin, as well as Sergei Ugryumov.

In 2000, Vladimir presented the play on the stage of the Art Theater - soon after Oleg Tabakov became its director. “No. 13” is considered one of the most commercially successful performances of modern times. Interest in it does not dry up 18 years later, even after the director made adjustments and changed the cast of performers, leaving only Sergei Belyaev and Leonid Timtsunik in their places.

Vladimir Mashkov is, without exaggeration, one of the brightest stars of Russian cinema. Among other things (and few of our actors can boast of this), he starred in Hollywood. Of Mashkov’s many film characters, viewers especially love David Markovich Gotsman from Sergei Ursulyak’s serial television film “Liquidation.” Among the most popular films of recent times with the participation of the actor are such films as “Moving Up”, “Crew”, “Duelist”.

As a director, Mashkov made two films: “The Orphan of Kazan,” in which he featured his teacher, Oleg Tabakov, and “Papa,” based on Galich’s “Sailor’s Silence.”

In 2010, Vladimir Mashkov was awarded the honorary title of People's Artist of Russia. Among other things, he is a laureate of the prestigious Nika, Golden Eagle, and TEFI awards.

The Oleg Tabakov Theater opened its 33rd season not on the historical stage of the “basement theater” (as the founder himself lovingly called his brainchild) and not on the new modernized Stage on Sukharevskaya, but in the chamber space of the Oleg Tabakov School. This is due to the fact that two venues are undergoing major renovations at once, and therefore in the first half of the season “Tabakerka” will play performances on the stages of other capital theaters.

At the end of the troupe’s gathering, Vladimir Mashkov explained that the Stage on Sukharevskaya, although it was put into operation in 2016, the construction of the building itself “has not been brought to its logical conclusion. Shortcomings were discovered in it, the roof began to leak, and therefore the decision was made to turn to the builders again.”

However, temporary inconveniences seem to be the only difficulty of the upcoming season, in which many premieres, events and, simply put, a lot of interesting work are planned.

On the threshold of the School, Vladimir Lvovich appeared under camera flashes - with a large red folder in his hands (later it would become clear that it contained materials carefully prepared for the opening of the season) and a well-read volume of Stanislavsky. Moreover, Stanislavsky arose for a reason. Addressing the troupe and college students, the successor to Oleg Tabakov’s work more than once referred to the outstanding founder of the Moscow Art Theater:

“I was waiting for this moment,” said Vladimir Mashkov when the applause died down. - Today is the 135th day that I have been in this position. I wanted to see the hall, to make sure that this is exactly how it should be - full of spectators and future artists.

Pay attention to the magic of numbers. As Konstantin Sergeevich Stanislavsky said, we must not forget about the magical “if only”. We are in our 33rd season. What a number! Independence. Season 3 of our New Stage on Sukharevskaya and season 9 at the School.

At the end of the season, I said that we were moving to a kind of martial law, because we had to put everything on alert to meet the audience. We are modernizing the Stage on Sukharevskaya. We are modernizing our historic basement. We also made renovations at the School and it is not for nothing that we are opening the season here.

As Konstantin Sergeevich Stanislavsky says, an actor is obliged to return to school every 4-5 years in order to improve his voice, and, as he put it, “pluck off the stuck shells.” It seems to me that our theater is one of the few that has such a unique opportunity. We have a whole empire, which was created by our master Oleg Pavlovich Tabakov. This is the School, this is our Historical Stage on Chaplygina with our basement and the Stage on Sukharevskaya. And we also have Workshops that can dress you all up and make decorations. We have all. We are self-sufficient, we are adults. And our goal is one - success. Success in your life, success with the viewer and we have no other task than to become better.

Oleg Pavlovich always said at the opening: “Our profession is tough, maybe even cruel. And even I, with my connections, cannot endow people with gifts or talents.”

Indeed, acting is the most socially unprotected profession. Therefore, it all depends on you and, probably, on us - whether we can convey to the guys what we know, and whether it will be useful. Therefore, I really want and hope that the theater and the School will live as a single organism, enriching each other. I really want to activate the actors too: if you don’t pass on your knowledge, your experience and skills, then you are selfish. This means you are not interested in playing and working with good partners. Believe me, it's good to play with good artists. You are getting better. An inattentive artist can ruin everything.

I want us to have Oleg Pavlovich’s performance “Biloxi Blues” again, where students will meet one of the great theater artists. And such experiments will continue to happen here. Only in this connection, it seems to me, will there be a correct existence.

A mirror is an amazing material. You know, as Chaplin said: “I love the mirror very much: it’s the only one that doesn’t laugh when I cry.” We ourselves are like a reflection of our teacher in the mirror. Pay attention, they say: stage mirror. The mirror of the stage reflects not the world, but the viewer. And then we go to the actor, to his eyes, which should be the mirror of the soul. I really want to immerse every viewer in an atmosphere of attention to oneself, to the space, to the worlds that surround us. For the opening of the updated Stage on Sukharevskaya Square (November of this year), a special show “Atom of the Sun” is being prepared, in which, we plan, there will be many miracles: we will show all the capabilities of our site, present the entire troupe and all the students of our School. This will be the first big collaboration.

By the way, please note that the bus stop next to Sukharevskaya Square is now called the Oleg Tabakov Theater. This is great happiness. If we don’t succeed and we destroy the theater, then Oleg Pavlovich’s stop will remain forever.

I also have a dream to introduce you to my close friend Fedor Konyukhov, our great traveler, who is preparing another trip on a rowing boat. He will sail through Cape Horn. No one had ever gone there in a rowboat. In November he will start from New Zealand on a solo voyage, and we, I hope, from the School will accompany him. Because, it seems to me, he needs the cat Matroskin as a partner.”

This is just a fragment of the speech that Vladimir Mashkov gave at the troupe meeting. His performance was reminiscent of a one-man show - with its own very clear message, drama and, of course, intrigue, since the theater has many plans, but the actor has named only a few works so far. At the end of January, the play “Sailor's Silence” will return to the repertoire, in which Vladimir Mashkov will play the main role. “I consider this my responsibility,” the actor emphasized. - But I really ask you all to help me. I haven't been on stage for twenty years. For me, this will probably be one of the most important tests in my life.”

At the end of February, Alla Sigalova will present a new version of the play “Katerina Ilvovna” (Stage on Sukharevskaya), and at the end of the season - the musical My Fair Lady. In March, Sergei Puskepalis will release the play “Russian War Pectoralis” based on Leskov’s story “Iron Will”. In addition, the theater plans to stage the play “Star Wanderer” based on the work of the same name by Jack London (directed by Alexey Mizgirev). In addition, the play “Biloxi Blues” directed by Oleg Tabakov will be resumed on the stage of the School with fourth-year students.

Toward the end, Vladimir Mashkov offered the students a game. Everyone pulled out a golden ball from a glass aquarium and read the name of one or another legendary artist.

“I really want you to become guardians of this name and, over time, be able to answer the question: why me? An unidentified pattern will not do here. This means you didn't find it. I want you to know everything about your loved one, look at everything that is possible with his participation, read it, and then tell us.”

And we have no other task other than to become better,” said Mashkov.

People's Artist of Russia Vladimir Mashkov is one of the most popular actors in Russian cinema. “A truly great master who continues the best traditions of the Russian acting school. His work is distinguished by authenticity, a subtle psychological drawing of characters and selfless dedication to his work. Mashkov is a professional of the highest class.” The director gave this description of Mashkov

Biography

Vladimir Mashkov inherited his stormy temperament and bright appearance from his Italian grandmother, who came to Russia to teach. Here she got married and gave birth to a daughter, Natalya, Vladimir’s future mother. Natalya Ivanovna gave birth to a son, Vitaly, in her first marriage. Vladimir was born when his mother was married to the charming and energetic actor Lev Petrovich Mashkov.

In the mid-1960s, the Mashkov family moved to Novokuznetsk. Parents got a job at the Novokuznetsk Puppet Theater: father as an actor, mother as a director. Most of Volodya's childhood was spent behind the scenes of the theater. Volodya was always the life of the party, played the guitar excellently, and was fond of Paul McCartney and Suzi Quatro. But at school, “Vovka studied disgustingly!” says his half-brother. “He changed schools because of his bad behavior: he would grow long hair, or something else.”

However, after graduating from school, when the Mashkovs moved to Novosibirsk in the late 1970s, Vladimir applied to the biology department of the university. After studying at the university for a year, he dropped out and entered the Novosibirsk Theater School. Then there was the Moscow Art Theater School, where at first there was also no luck - Mashkov was expelled for a fight and continued his theater studies as a decorator at the Moscow Art Theater. After missing a year, Mashkov graduated from the Studio School on Tabakov’s course. The meeting with became decisive in the fate of Vladimir.

Theater

In 1990, Vladimir Mashkov was accepted into the Theater troupe under the direction of Oleg Tabakov. His first big role was Abram Schwartz in the play "Sailor's Silence" based on Galich's play. After this work, the head of the Moscow Art Theater Oleg Tabakov said that an Actor was born. Among Vladimir Mashkov's other roles: Mayor in the play "The Inspector General", Don Juan - "The Myth of Don Juan", Platonov - "Mechanical Piano", Ivanovich and Ugarov - "Anecdotes".

In 1992, Mashkov became interested in directing. As a director, he staged performances at the Tabakov Theater "Finest Hour in Local Time" and "Passion of Bumbarash" (play by Yuli Kim), and two years later - "Deadly Number" (Oleg Antonov). And in 1996, he staged the play “The Threepenny Opera” on the stage of the Satyricon Theater.

“Theater is my life, and now I enjoy rehearsing with my colleagues and friends. And nothing could be more beautiful than this,” Mashkov told RIA Novosti.

Movie

Vladimir Mashkov made his film debut in 1989 in the film “Green Fire of the Goat.” In total, Mashkov starred in about fifty films. The actor's finest hour came in 1994, when he played roles in the films Limita by Denis Evstigneev and Then there were the films The Thief, which received an Oscar nomination. In 2000, he played the role of Emelyan Pugachev in the historical film

"Russia 1"

Evgeny Mironov is Mashkov’s most important partner in Russia. Both students of Tabakov came out of the Tabakerka. Their duets in the films “The Idiot”, “Piranha Hunt” and in the TV series “Ashes” always arouse special interest among viewers and professionals. According to Mironov, Mashkov can always help, suggest in which direction to move.

In March 2015, television viewers saw a series filmed in the genre of a psychological thriller. The film tells about the tragedy of officer Alexei Bragin, released from many years of imprisonment. The officer is hiding something: perhaps he was recruited by the enemy. The film received very high ratings. The role of Bragin was brilliantly played by Vladimir Mashkov. “I was impressed by this man. This settler. I still can’t fully figure him out. He changes so often that I can’t keep up with him,” Mashkov said in a segment of the Vesti program dedicated to the release of the series.

In 2016, the premiere of a new one took place - a remake of one of the most popular Russian films. The main roles went to Vladimir Mashkov. The producer of the film, Leonid Vereshchagin, did not hide the fact that attracting the most popular actors to work would have a positive effect on the box office. When editing the film, all kinds of special effects, high-quality graphics, and 3D format were used.

On December 28, 2017, the action drama was released. In this film, the inimitable Vladimir Mashkov starred as the coach of the Soviet basketball team, which beat the “invincible” US team at the 1972 Munich Olympics.

The team players were played by young talented actors - Kirill Zaitsev, Alexander Ryapolov.

Hollywood

Mashkov was one of the first Russian actors to begin acting in Hollywood, and with great success. His partners were such stars as Robert De Niro, Nastassja Kinski, Tom Cruise, Gerard Depardieu. Fanny Ardant, who starred in “Rasputin,” said that it was a great pleasure for her to play in Russia, especially in St. Petersburg, which was introduced to her by the “wonderful actor Mashkov.”

Psychic abilities

Actor Vladimir Mashkov has psychic abilities, he predicts the future and heals with touches. During the filming of the series “Rasputin,” his colleagues came to the artist with complaints of headaches, and he helped them get rid of the disease. This proves that Mashkov has powerful energy.

Love to the animals

Since childhood, Vladimir adored animals. Cats and dogs, birds and hamsters, rats and squirrels, and rabbits and turtles constantly lived in his house.

True, combining the acting profession with a love for pets is quite difficult: during long filming, they have to be placed with friends or acquaintances. Surprises happen. For example, an Australian cockatoo named Jack, who lived with the actor for several years, visited the foster home at the Durov Animal Theater and there he met his love - a large parrot with a beautiful pink crest. Vladimir Lvovich decided to respect Jack’s feelings and did not take the parrot home.

Personal life

In his first year at theater school, Mashkov fell in love with fellow student Elena Shevchenko. A whirlwind romance began and in 1983 the young people got married. But the relationship began to deteriorate quite quickly. They were both temperamental, artistic people. Soon after the birth of their daughter, the couple divorced.

After his divorce from Shevchenko, Mashkov married Moscow Art Theater actress Alena Khovanskaya. The marriage broke up after two years. Then the actor married fashion designer Ksenia Terentyeva. And this marriage did not turn out to be lasting.

In 2005, 42-year-old Mashkov married for the fourth time. His chosen one was the American actress of Ukrainian origin Oksana Shelest. Their relationship seemed ideal. Even Oksana’s son began to treat Vladimir as his own father. But in 2008, Mashkov became single again.

Then rumors appeared that Mashkov decided to get back together with his ex-wife Ksenia Terentyeva. However, the actor himself denied such information. According to him, he is no stranger to journalists’ fictions about his personal life. By the way, the actor himself claims that he was married only twice - to Shevchenko and Terentyeva. And the rest were only common-law wives. In general, Mashkov carefully protects his personal life from prying eyes.
