Tutin, Dame Dorothy

Tutin, Dame Dorothy
▪ 2002

      British actress (b. April 8, 1931, London, Eng.—d. Aug. 6, 2001, London), was one of the British theatre's most accomplished leading ladies during a 50-year stage career. Tutin's varied repertoire included most of the leading female characters in Shakespeare, Chekhov, and Ibsen, as well as Sally Bowles in the original 1954 London production of I Am a Camera and modern plays by John Osborne, Tom Stoppard, and Harold Pinter. Although Tutin concentrated on the theatre, she occasionally appeared on television and in motion pictures, notably as Cecily Cardew in her first film, The Importance of Being Earnest (1952), and as Polly Peachum in The Beggar's Opera (1953). Tutin was made CBE in 1967 and was elevated to DBE in 2000.
