Dmitry Sokolov is a famous KVN player, comedian and showman. His attraction is that he says absolutely hilarious things with a completely serious face.
Childhood
Dmitry Sokolov was born in April 1965 in the city of Pervouralsk near Yekaterinburg.
Dmitry, according to his mother, grew up a mobile and mischievous child. He was interested in many things in life, and he tried to try everything. Fortunately, Dima had an older sister, who often guided him on the path of life.
Dima often acted out different scenes at home. Once a TV set-up master, seeing Dimin's concert, wondered why the Sokolov family needed a TV.
Education
At school, teachers complained about Dmitry for restlessness, and the boy did not show much interest in learning. But he selflessly attended a music school, although the teachers said that Dima had neither hearing nor voice. Now I think, but was he playing the teachers that he does not hear the notes? For the fun of it?
After graduating from school, Dmitry chose the Ural Polytechnic Institute, because his sister studied here, and she often told her brother about the fun student life. Dima, having entered the institute, immediately joined the team, starting to play in the student theater "Horizon".
KVN
Having thoroughly studied the structure of the student theater, Dmitry decided to create his own project. This is how the now widely known KVN team “Ural dumplings” appeared. Sokolov recruited interesting guys from other student theaters to the team. This is how the unique composition of the KVN team was born, which has existed for many years and invariably produces high-quality humor. All the guys are bright individuals, talents, but they complement each other so much that they function as a single organism.
Playing in KVN, "Uralskie dumplings" were very successful - they won the 2000 season, several prizes of the music festival in Jurmala and the Winners' Super Cup.
Television career
After the end of the KVN games, many teams break up, the participants begin to live their own lives, far from humor. But "Uralskie dumplings" broke this tradition. They made KVN a profession and make good money on it. It is noteworthy that they did not join some already existing TV shows, but they created their own TV project, where they continue to act as the whole team. And their humor turned out to be in great demand nowadays in Russia.
Personal life
Dmitry Sokolov is married for the second time. From his first wife Natalia, whom they met while still students, he has two children - a son, Sasha, and a daughter, Anya. The family broke up due to the fact that Dmitry was constantly not at home due to touring.
The second wife, Ksenia, is 23 years younger than Dmitry. In this marriage, three children were born, the youngest daughter pleased her dad with her birth immediately after his fiftieth birthday. So Dmitry is a father with many children. And they say that he is a caring husband. Maybe they're joking again.
