Ezepov Vyacheslav
Vyacheslav Ivanovich Ezepov, People's Artist of Russia, was born on October 7, 1941 in Saratov.
Vyacheslav Ezepov graduated from the Moscow Art Theatre School, where his drama workshop leaders were legendary Vasily Toporkov and Kira Golovko. In 1963 he was admitted to the Lesya Ukrainka Russian Drama Theatre (Kiev). It would be natural for a young artist who has just joined the theatre’s company to start with being a background actor involved in crowd scenes first. However, Ezepov immediately starts with landing leading roles that will later enter the gold fund of Soviet art: Palchikov in«Evening Light» by Aleksei Arbuzov; Domingo in «Don Carlos» by Friedrich Schiller; Jack in «The Importance of Being Earnest» by Oscar Wilde; Krylov in«Going Inside a Storm» by Daniil Granin and Anton Chekhov in «My Mocking Happiness» by Leonid Malyugin.
Anatoliy Efros noticed a young talented actor and invited him to join the Moscow Lenin Komsomol Theatre (today the«Lenkom Theatre»), where Vyacheslav Ivanovich worked during one season. Later Ezepov returned to the Lesya Ukrainka Theatre. However Vyacheslav Ivanovich’s creative path is linked with the Maly Theatre that he joined in 1967.
Vyacheslav Ivanovich entered the House of Ostrovsky as a very young, but already an established artist, having gained array and experience in different types of drama schools. Being a natural play-actor, he exists outside of roles and genres. Vyacheslav Ezepov is an artist of subtle and deep psychological analysis and that, coupled with diligence and dedication, allows him to create vivid and memorable images from a two-faced tsar-to-be Vasiliy Shuisky in «Tsar Ivan the Terrible» by Aleksey Konstantinovich Tolstoy to an awkward Dyadin in «The Wood Demon» by Anton Chekhov and a regicide - Yakov Yurovsky, a close friend of Sverdlov, who instigated the orders initiating the execution of Nicholas II and his family («And I Shall Repay» by Sergey Kuznetsov). Over the years Ezepov played more than 100 roles on the stage and worked with the some of the most experienced and gifted directors of the time - Ravenskikh, Varpakhovskiy, Lvov-Anokhin, Reznikovich, Kheyfetz, Morozov, Beylis, etc.
In 2017 Ezepov realized his life-long dream - he directed «Little Tragedies» by Alexander Pushkin that was staged on the Maly Theatre’s small stage and also performed three main roles in the play: Salieri, Baron and the Chairman.
