Biography
Denis Igorevich Rozhkov was born on July 3, 1979. In 1993 he received a certificate at school No. 1056. As a child, he wanted to become a policeman, attended a circle at the local department. He had a notebook that was divided into three parts: alcoholics, murderers and thieves. I wrote down my observations in each department. Denis's grandfather was a district police officer, so a book was taken from him, in which he signed on how to conduct interrogations correctly, to catch criminals.
At one of the contests, the reciters were noticed by the head of the theater studio "Mirror" NP Ganysh. This was one of the reasons why the young man began to get involved in acting. In the studio there was an acquaintance with Pavel Maikov. He played with him on the small stage, and a few years later he entered the Moscow Art Theater School. At the final concert, he was noted by Oleg Tabakov.
Denis from an early age wanted to become an actor, so one of his attempts was to enter GITIS. However, the first time I did not succeed in becoming a student.

With their own savings, they managed to buy an apartment only 12 years after the start of family life. The first years Irina was the only breadwinner in the family. In 1999, a son, Ivan, appeared in the family.
The artist often says that he was very lucky with his wife. She herself rotates in a near-actor environment, she herself is familiar with all the subtleties of work on stage. Therefore, in front of her, there is no need to make excuses for delays at work, especially when rehearsals end late at night.

Creativity and career
In 1998, the actor did not receive an invitation from Tabakov to join the "Tabakerki" troupe, thanks to which he got into the drama theater on Perovskaya. There was a lot of work, but the salary was so low that Rozhkov had to earn extra money:
- set maker;
- leading on cooperatives;
- animator at children's parties.
The man took on almost any job, for some time he was even a handyman in a bakery, a waiter and an insurance agent. After working for two seasons, the actor quit the theater.

Despite this, a sense of contentment came. Relations with Maxim Averin did not immediately improve, although now young people are friends.
For three years Denis worked without vacation for 22 shooting days a month. During the filming, I had to closely interact with the traffic police officers. The shooting took place at the present post, so the professionals gave advice and made comments. The actor notes that Denis Antoshin is his complete opposite.
