Each actor leaves the screen differently. Anatoly Chaliapin, a popular Soviet theater and film actor in the seventies, played the role of Mitka Kurganov in the TV serial "Shadows disappear at noon". He has starred in melodramas, comedies and dramas. In the movie "The President and His Granddaughter" he only appeared on the screen for a short time.
Often, artistic destiny tries the endurance of many performers who have won the recognition of the audience. Anatoly Konstantinovich Chaliapin did not bypass such a check.
Career in theater
The biography of the future artist began in 1948. The child was born in Moscow on March 28 in an ordinary family. The ZIL recreation center was located next to the house. In it, an active and capable boy was engaged in junior and choreographic circles.
In between dances, Shalyapin showed sketches to his friends. The teacher who was observing the student recommended that he go to the theater group. Anatoly was admitted to the People's Theater, headed by Sergei Stein at the age of 11. A year later he was included in the cast of the play "The End of the Conduit".
After school, Chaliapin had no doubts: he chose an artistic career. The graduate decided to get education at the Shchepkinsky school. He was assigned to the course of Mikhail Ivanovich Tsarev. In his first year, the student was invited to the Maly Theater. He made his stage debut in the role of Mishka, a servant of the Governor, in the comedy "The Inspector General". This was the first role with words, and Igor Ilyinsky himself rehearsed with him.
He remained in the theater until 1969. After completing his studies at Sliver, Chaliapin was sent to the Tula Drama Theater named after Gorky. For almost a decade, the artist played in the troupe of the Moscow Experimental Theater, headed by Gennady Yudenich. Rehearsals began in the morning, vocals and dance were obligatory. No part-time work, and even more so, participation in the filming was not encouraged or allowed.
The theater ceased to exist in 1980. After that Anatoly Konstantinovich decided to change his type of activity. He began working as a director of cultural events at the ZIL Palace of Culture. Through his efforts, the Ochag club operated, where the leader played the role of a Brownie, supporting conversations on any topic. All events close to the theater turned out to be entertaining and interesting for the artist. He also composed scripts for Christmas trees. He was a member of the KVN jury.
Cinematography or theater
Anatoly Konstantinovich became an administrator at a choreographic school for children. He made a schedule of classes, looked for teachers. The students took part in the performances of the Natalia Sats Musical Theater. They were involved in the TV show, where he was the presenter, and Chaliapin himself.
The artist was invited to the Theater of the Moon by its founder, actor Sergei Prokhanov.
Work was underway on the play "Little Robinson's Dreams". In it, Chaliapin was offered to play the Parrot. The performance for children was a success: it went on with constant sold-out. Then there was work in "The Journey of Amateurs", "Faust", "Tender Night" and in "Byzantium".
For the best male role in 1999, the artist, who played the role of Podtyagin in the play "Mashenka", was awarded a prize at the Moscow theater festival dedicated to the centenary of Nabokov's birth.
A career in cinema began with the film "Twenty Years Later" in 1965. In it the artist played Sasha Sergeev. According to the scenario, a group of young people in the winter of 1919 was left to engage in underground work in a city occupied by White Guard troops. To avert suspicions, the guys put on a play based on the work of Alexandre Dumas.
An attempt to put up leaflets turned out to be unsuccessful. Sasha Sergeev was arrested. According to the list of artists found in his possession, counterintelligence plans to carry out arrests. The detainee escapes from custody, managing to warn his friends about the danger.
Star role
After small roles in "The Adventures of a Dentist" and "Lost," work in the television series "Shadows Disappear at Noon" became stellar. The picture shows the history of the inhabitants of a Siberian village. It begins with the fact that in a taiga village, the heirs of wealthy families are hiding under someone else's documents, dreaming of surviving difficult times and waiting for the return of the former power. However, there is no change, and their own children do not recognize the values instilled by their parents. In the television series, Chaliapin was approved for the role of Mitka Kurganov. For her sake, the actor left the Tula Theater.
A small, but vivid role of the drunkard was played by the actor in the film "A Dangerous Age". According to the plot, the Rodimtsevs decide to leave, realizing that they have nothing in common 20 years after the wedding. However, the son cannot withstand the current stop and enters to study as a sailor, and neither wife nor husband can take up a career due to divorce and departure. Narkis Mikhailovich, as an excellent perfumer-taster, was invited to identify the aroma of the alleged criminal's perfume.
After being injured, the hero loses the ability to listen to smells. The unique ability is restored after meeting with the ex-spouse. From the early eighties to the late nineties, the artist was assigned minor characters. In some films, his name was not indicated in the credits, his heroes were so inconspicuous.
Work continues
The performer reincarnated as a dish inspector in the painting "The President and His Granddaughter". The story begins with the death of a very important patient during childbirth. Fearing a trial, the doctor replaces the baby with one of the twin girls born to another patient.
In both families, children receive the name Maria. The girls manage to meet by chance after 12 years and switch places. One is settling into the luxurious mansion of the president, where her sister lives with her grandfather, the other is to meet a real mother. As a result, the girls change their grandfather's character for the better and begin to communicate with each other.
In the 2000s, Chaliapin continues to act in supporting roles. He played in Zotov's Truckers, appeared in the TV series At the Patriarch's Corner as an accountant and head of the book depository, starred in Detectives, Desirable and other projects.
The actor does not tell anything about his personal life. He is completely sure that outsiders do not need to know about what is happening outside the stage and screen.
