Pavel Kapitonov Biography

Therefore, the officer is just a person with all the virtues and weaknesses. Interesting continuity-in the current production-adoption by the great colleagues, many artists who played the younger generation then take part: Sergey Stepanchenko, Andrei Leonov, you, Viktor Rakov, Ivan Agapov, Alexander Sirin ... What do you recall in the previous “memorial prayer”, and what new accents appeared in the restored version?

Much more depends on the audience perception. Everyone treated Evgeny Pavlovich with a priori love and tenderness. The charm of Zakharov’s performances is that strong wedges are driven, regardless of who plays. And now, thinking about different things, about the emigration of that time, I came to the conclusion that the performance was staged for the sake of two phrases: “The plague is on their head.

And who needed this so that the Leizer from Anatovka says "goodbai"? But after reading many interviews of Evgeny Pavlovich, I understand that even then and now there is almost no Odessa dialect in the performance, everyone speaks Russian. Mark Anatolyevich wanted to tell a universal history. The performance of other Soviet republics took the performance to Georgia, and everywhere local residents noted - this is about us.

Despite the nationality. In the new production, it turned out that half of the artists played in the performance of Zakharov and, when we read the play, sometimes they gave one or another phrase with the intonation of Yevgeny Pavlovich Leonov or Alexander Gavriovich Abdulov in a voice. And the second half pronounced the text in its own way. Of course, there were some doubts. It will not work to repeat exactly.

Intonation - yes, but a voice, plastic is still different for everyone. Ultimately, it is impossible to return the past. However, I am glad that this performance reappeared in the repertoire, many love it. Why does she continue to worry all of us? Also, political history brings its associations. The same “Jester Balakirev”, which has been with us for more than twenty years, has now become especially relevant.

And this is very typical of Zakharov’s performances, something always responds in the current time. I repeat what I told you last time - the theater should be emotional. This makes it modern. Everyone probably draws parallels with his life, looking for something recognizable. This character has opened new comic notes. Input into a finished drawing of a role is a challenge for an artist?

You know, when, sometimes, it’s difficult, and another time, as in this case, it’s easy - you rush immediately into cold water, you will be superfunked. In the “Last Train” that we were talking about, I already have a second role where you catch such a buzz of courage. I like to sing, although I even sang in the same Royal Games, and here you go to a new level of pleasure.

So all this is native and close. There was a small mandracy and excitement, on the other hand. As for the work on the role from scratch, at the very first, table stage, it happens, reading the text, you think-oh, something is not very suitable for me, and then get involved in the process. The artists turned to Mark Anatolyevich-can I try it, will I do so?

And he is in response - I don’t have to tell about it, I don’t understand in words, show it. And I always want to start rehearsing more likely, and not just speak. Everything is individual, each has their own kitchen. And I teach our young guys who are injected somewhere: your paramount task is not to kill yourself on stage, not to kill a partner and, engaged in business, tell your text.

Then everything else will come. My classmate loved to repeat - depression does not exist, you just need to do the job. And the grandmother said - everyone would be on carrots. Now, in our difficult time, they will promote the theory of little deeds around - go to the theater, communicate with your family, follow the house. You need to be distracted from anxious thoughts. Easy to say, but how to do it?

In my observation, one who does not particularly engage in anything is more affected, but plunges into this state. But with all the difficulties and restrictions, you could take yourself something interesting, what you did not have time to do with the usual frantic rhythm of life-to re-read your favorite book, watch a movie, a match or a performance in a record, listen to music, spend more time with loved ones ....
