Everyone admired her bright, sparkling talent and unearthly beauty. They wanted to resemble the Soviet film star of the 60s of the 20th century and imitate her in everything. But Tatyana Vasilievna Doronina was never a public person and, going out into the street, she wanted to remain unnoticed by a wide army of her fans. Despite the fact that the actress has not acted in films for several decades, her merits on the set and theater stage are still remembered. Tatyana Vasilievna is still in demand in the profession: she directs and plays on stage. What was her creative path and what was remarkable in the biography of the People's Artist of the USSR? Let's take a closer look at this issue.
Childhood years
Doronina Tatyana Vasilievna (year of birth - 1933, September 12) was born in the city on the Neva. Her parents were from ordinary peasants who came to the city from the countryside in order to somehow improve their financial situation. ToDoronina's father and mother had the most remote relation to great art.
When the country was invaded by the Nazis, Tatyana Vasilievna, together with her sister and mother, was forced to move from occupied Leningrad to the provincial town of Danilov (Yaroslavl region). Here was part of the childhood of the actress. When the siege of the cultural center of Russia was lifted, Doronina returned to her hometown and began to study at one of the local schools. The family of the actress had a hard time: a communal apartment and a constant shortage of food did not add optimism. At school, Tatyana Vasilievna studied mediocre: the humanities were easy for her, but difficulties arose with the exact sciences. But already at a young age, she could boast that she knew by heart the content of Konstantin Simonov's poem "The Son of an Artilleryman." After some time, the girl began to study in circles for singing, artistic reading, sections for rhythmic gymnastics and sports shooting.
First entry attempt
In the eighth grade, Tatyana Vasilievna goes to the capital and successfully passes exams at the Moscow Art Theater School. But, when the teachers asked her to present a matriculation certificate, it turned out that the girl was only 14 years old. As a result, she was offered to take the theater exams again, but after a couple of years.
Inspired by such success, Tatyana Vasilievna, whose biography, no doubt, contains a lot of interesting things, could not wait for the moment when she graduated from school. In seniorclasses, she intensively studied the basics of performing arts. A talented mentor, Fyodor Mikhailovich Nikitin, helped her in this.
Second entry attempt
Having received the coveted certificate, the girl again goes to Moscow to storm the leading theatrical universities of the capital. And everywhere she was waiting for success. As a result, the choice fell on the favorite school-studio of the Moscow Art Theater. Tatyana Vasilievna Doronina's fellow students were subsequently eminent Evgeny Evstigneev, Oleg Basilashvili, Mikhail Kozakov. The famous director Boris Vershilov taught the basics of acting to a student.
Career start
After graduating from the Moscow Art Theater School, Doronina, together with her first husband Oleg Basilashvili, is assigned to work in the provincial theater in Volgograd.
However, from the very beginning, a career there did not work out. Significant roles were not offered to novice actors in the local temple of Melpomene. Realizing the absence of any prospects, Doronina and Basilashvili leave Volgograd for St. Petersburg.
BDT
For some time Tatyana Vasilievna and Oleg Valerianovich worked at the Theater. Leninist Komsomol, living in the local make-up room.
In the late 50s, fortune smiled at the actors: the young actress met the head of the Bolshoi Drama Theater Georgy Tovstonogov, who offered her cooperation. But Tatyana Vasilyevna said that she would agree to the proposal, provided that her husband was also included in the troupe. Maestro didn't mind.
Roles in the theater
Debut work in BDTfor Doronina was the role of Nadezhda Monakhova in the production of M. Gorky's play "The Barbarians". It turned out to be triumphant: the viewer noted the brilliant game of Tatyana Vasilievna. The image of the excise inspector's wife, who could not live a day without love affairs, has been Doronina's calling card for several years. Then she was offered to play the role of Sophia in "Woe from Wit", the images of Masha in "Three Sisters", Lushka in "Virgin Soil Upturned", Nadia in "My Elder Sister", Natalya in "Once Again About Love".
In the mid-60s, Tatyana Vasilievna, whose autographed photo was wanted by all the fans of her talent without exception, left the BDT and went to Moscow with her new husband. In the capital, she gets a job at the Moscow Art Theater. Doronina will serve in this theater until 1971. By that time, a conflict will break out in the troupe of the Moscow Art Theater.
Temporary departure from your favorite theater
The famous actor Oleg Efremov and no less famous Tatyana Doronina will become irreconcilable antagonists. As a result, the actress will go to work in the Theater. Mayakovsky. Here she met director Andrei Goncharov, and their creative symbiosis would be very fruitful.
In 1983, Efremov will again call Tatyana Vasilievna to the Moscow Art Theater, and she will agree. However, a split in the theater was inevitable, and after the crisis, Doronina began to lead the Moscow Art Theater. Gorky. Until now, she leads this temple of Melpomene, whose actors have experienced a lot.
Film work
Doronina Tatyana Vasilievna, whose biography will benot without interest for many, has established herself as a talented hypocrite and on the set. After the roles played in the movies, all men fell in love with her. A trial ball in the cinema was the film by the famous director Mikhail Kalatozov "First Echelon" (1955). The actress was approved for the role of the Komsomol member Zoya, and she brilliantly coped with the task. The Soviet audience remembered the image of the main character Nyura, which Tatyana Vasilievna managed to convey in a delicate way. A film called "Three Poplars on Plyushchikha" (1967) was shot by the famous director Tatiana Lioznova.
It is noteworthy that Oleg Efremov turned out to be Doronina's partner on the set. For this image, she was recognized as the best actress of the year. Another bright work of Tatyana Vasilyevna is the role of the stewardess Natalya in the film Once Again About Love (1968), filmed by Georgy Natanson according to the script by Edward Radzinsky (the actress's husband). The image of the flight attendant was specially written for Doronina. Her partner in the film was to be the actor Boris Khimichev (another husband of Tatyana Vasilievna). But he refused at the last moment, and Alexander Lazarev replaced him. Doronina got images of strong women with a broad nature.
In the 70s, Tatyana Vasilievna began to be more selective about film roles, sometimes refusing directors. At that time, she agreed to participate in the film "Stepmother", directed by Oleg Bondarev, and in the adventure film "On a Clear Fire", filmed by Vitaly Koltsov.
Out of work
EnoughThe actress's personal life turned out to be rich and intense. She has never experienced a lack of male attention. But not everyone could win the heart of the beauty.
Since her student years, she had an affair with actor Oleg Basilashvili. They played a modest wedding: poor students did not even have money to buy wedding rings. With her first husband, a graduate of the Moscow Art Theater School lived for eight years. Naturally, many are interested in the question of whether the children of Doronina Tatyana Vasilievna were born. In her autobiographical book, the actress wrote that she had an abortion when she was young. A boy and a girl were to be born from Oleg Valeryanovich. But a career turned out to be more important than children, and after an artificial termination of pregnancy, the actress could no longer give birth.
The second chosen one of Tatyana Vasilievna was the theater critic Anatoly Yufit, who never ceased to admire the beauty of Doronina. When they went out together in public, everyone was amazed at how harmonious this couple was. However, Yufit and Doronin were in no hurry to officially register the relationship. A few years later, their union broke up.
The third contender for the hand and heart was the famous playwright Edward Radzinsky. Their acquaintance happened at a time when Tatyana Vasilyevna was a sought-after actress of the BDT. And for the sake of her lover, she was ready to leave the theater. Doronina left for the capital immediately after the playwright invited her to go with him.
RadzinskyHe wrote plays specifically for his wife, but their relationship came to an end after some time.
For the fourth time, Tatyana Vasilievna chose actor Boris Khimichev as her life partner, with whom she played on the Mayakovka stage. They got married and their marriage lasted about 7 years.
Doronina's last romance happened with an official from the Head Office of the Oil Industry, Robert Tokhnenko. After 10 years, the family idyll collapsed.
At present, the actress continues to work in the theater, but not as intensively as before. But she is still loved by millions of viewers.
