Actors and roles
Amazing in the role of Elmira Elmira Mirel. Firstly, it is worth noting her external data - amazing eyes, gorgeous copper-colored hair, she is very dramatic and graceful. Secondly, the actress manages to be comical in the scene of Tartuffe's seduction.
Orgon performed by Andrey Zavodyuk turned out to be too suggestible. He is constantly attracted to the network by either Tartuffe or Elmira. With what bigotry he defends his protege! He does not need anyone, not even a son. After all, now, in Orgon's view, the son is too obstinate, and Tartuffe, on the contrary, is decency and honesty itself.
Another red-haired beauty - Vera Voronkova, who appeared on the stage in the role of Dorina. She is cheerful, joyful, bright, open, never discouraged. She is devoted to her masters and tries to protect them with all her might.
The duet of Marianne (actress Anastasia Mytrazhik) and Valera (actor Artem Yeshkin) looks amazing. It turned out a very interesting pair of such lovers - a little ridiculous, naive and at the same time categorical. Most viewers are sure that one of the most ridiculous scenes of the play is the one in which they quarrel.
