Childhood

Vladimir Skvortsov was born in 1970, on April 17, in Moscow. His father and mother worked throughout the life of the Ministry of Railways. My father's grandfather served as the chief of the railway. A grandfather on my mother's line was an employee of the design office of the helicopter plant. In the Skvortsov family, no one dreamed of a creative career. Before the third class, Volodya did not think that he would become an actor either. He attended music school in accordion class, practiced different kinds of sports, was quite a closed and uncommunicative teenager. Once the boy was asked at the lesson about what he wants to become. Volodya, after his classmate, a representative of the famous actor's dynasty, Kolya Lazarev, answered that he would be an artist. His words aroused amicable laughter in the classroom. This greatly offended Skvortsov. He decided at all costs to implement his difficult plan. And he achieved his goal. Diploma of acting was given to him by the famous actor Yevgeny Lazarev.

Theater of Young Muscovites

When Vladimir graduated from the third grade, my mother wrote him to a theater studio, which was in the local Palace of Pioneers and was famous for its beautiful pedigree. This studio bore a loud name "Theater of Young Muscovites" (TYUM). Her graduates at different times were Lev Durov, Sergei Nikonenko, Natalia Gundareva, Valery Belyakovich. Skvortsov really got into a real theater, with his workshops, dressing rooms, stage and a big troupe. Simultaneously with Vladimir, Vika Tolstoganova and Olga Kabo visited the studio.

The boy was immediately involved in theatrical productions. He made his debut in the play "Pioneer Comedy" by Alexander Khmelik as a pioneer, then began to play in the tale "Buratino", where he portrayed Pierrot and Duramar.

Military service

After graduation, Vladimir Skvortsov began to storm theatrical high schools of the capital. The future actor acted for a long time, four years. The actor recalls that the process of entering the institute was like a hobby - collecting colleges in which he failed the exams. Vladimir was not lucky in the Shchepkinsky school, the following year he was denied the "Pike". Several times he tried to become a student at the Moscow Art Theater School, but all his attempts were in vain. At the age of 18 Skvortsov played the main role on the stage of the TUM in the production of "The Ballad of a Mournful Tavern." Vladimir really liked this work, he felt at the very beginning of a serious creative path, but he was drafted into the army. Exhausted by unsuccessful attempts to enter the institute, Skvortsov was ready to leave as far as possible from his native city. However, my mother, shortly before the appeal, persuaded the young man to attend a projectionist in the vocational school. Therefore, Vladimir Skvortsov, while serving in the army for some time worked as a projectionist in the club at the hospital, which was in the Urals. Then the future actor was in Germany. This country became his second home for him, Vladimir planned to stay there for overtime. However, he was persuaded by his parents and friends to return to Moscow.

Education at the Institute

After serving his time in the army, Vladimir Skvortsov got a job as a projectionist in VGIK. There he was brought to fates with the editor who worked on the diploma films of the students of Anatoly Vasiliev. The future actor caught fire with the idea of becoming an artist in the theater of this great master. Vladimir got to audition for Vasiliev, but Anatoly did not take him to his troupe. However, the master gave some valuable advice on entering a theater high school. Vladimir listened to them and easily entered the School-Studio of the Moscow Art Theater on the course to Pokrovskaya Alla Borisovna.

Vladimir Skvortsov - an actor who is famous for his professionalism - studied with amazing teachers. He attended classes conducted by Marina Brusnikina, Natalia Zhuravleva, Roman Kozak, Tatyana Vasilyeva, Alexander Feklistov, Avangard Leontiev, Vitaliy Vilenkin, Vladimir Peshkin, Alla Pokrovskaya. These wonderful people not only taught Skvortsov to work in a team, treated with love for the acting profession, respected his colleagues in the shop, but also prepared the artist for the difficulties that inevitably arise in the way of every creative person.

Becoming a career

During training, Skvortsov was noticed by Vladimir Mirzoyev, who was looking for actors for his new production of "Khlestakov". The director invited Vladimir to the role of Dobchinsky. The artist began to rehearse in a team of amazing people. It was a great honor for him to work together with Maxim Sukhanov, Vladimir Simonov, Julia Rutberg and the wonderful Elizaveta Nikishichina. Together with Viktoria Tolstoganova Skvortsova happened to play in another production of Mirzoyev - the teleoperation "Love" based on Petrushevskaya's play.

After working in Khlestakov, the actor managed to get to audition for Alexander Aleksandrovich Kalyagin, who took him to the troupe of his new theater Et Cetera. Vladimir immediately was involved in the production of "A guide for those wishing to marry." This actor considers his work a failure. However, the creative biography of Vladimir Skvortsov was just beginning, so he did not pay attention to this relative failure.
