Natalia Nazarova is an actress of the comedy genre of the times of the USSR

Natalia Nazarova is an actress in the comedy genre who has not acted in films and has not played in the theater for about thirty years. Recently, she turned 67. What events in life forced her to leave the profession and how is the fate of the actress today?

Carier start

A native of Alma-Ata, she came to Moscow to enter the theater school Nazarova. The date of her birth is June 28, 1949. She was a tall girl with an expressive appearance, from which she showed kindness and amazing femininity. Entering the course of Peter Massalsky in the Moscow Art Theater School, Natalia Nazarova, an actress whose biography is little known to the modern spectator, was immediately invited to the Moscow Art Theater after graduation. 1972 - the year of the beginning of her theatrical and film career, which developed successfully from the very first days.

She played an acute role and selflessly gave herself to art, becoming one of the theater's favorite actresses. Her characters - Aldonsa from the "Dulcinea of Tobos", Nyura from the "Old New Year", Olga and Kaleria from "Dachnikov" - evoked constant laughter in the hall, but she dreamed of the role of the heroine. Even at the beginning of the creative path she managed to persuade the director Vladimir Salyuk to entrust the romantic role of the young girl, who did not turn out. Instead of touching and tenderness, Natalia Nazarova (actress) brought to her character something that caused the usual laughter in the hall.

The girl was so demanding of herself that she tried to commit suicide in the dormitory of the theater, trying to get out of life. She was rescued, but this act revealed the vulnerability and fragility of the soul of the actress. Naive and childish, the immediate so forever will remain Natalia Nazarova.

Actress: personal life, photo, family

Colleagues talk about Natalia Ivanovna, whose photo is presented in the article as a fanatically devoted theater actress. A case is known when in Tartuffe, partner Stanislav Lyubshin squeezed her hand so tightly that, by inadvertently twitching, she broke it, but finished the play, showing no pain. She did not have high-profile romances. The actress was so absorbed in art that her marriage to the theater scientist Vyacheslav Obrosov, concluded a year after the graduation of the theater school, became an event in theatrical life. They lived quite happily, so their divorce in the 80s surprised everyone. One can only guess what caused it: the husband's enthusiasm for alcohol, the absence of children or the feelings of the actress for partner Yuri Bogatyryova, which she carefully concealed all her life.

After the program "Let them talk" in 2010, many became interested in the question of who Natalia Nazarova is, an actress whose children left her all alone and alone. In fact, she never had them. The woman lives in a one-room apartment on the northern outskirts of the capital, where her mother once lived. Hardly earlier did not become the father and the brother. From close relatives there was a niece named Marina, who lives in Almaty. Therefore, after the tragic events of 1989, when an unknown man in the yard of the house attacked her and caused a brain injury, the woman remained practically without support. She was treated for a long time in the hospital, on the verge of life and death. Doctors managed to save her life, but Nazarova developed schizophrenia, not allowing her to continue her creative career.

Leaving the theater

Strangeness in the actress was seen before: she was maximalist in everything, including friendship. One of her friends was Elena Proklova, who decided to distance herself from Nazarova because of the dissimilarity of temperaments, for Natalya Ivanovna was a vigorous and too noisy woman. In one of the performances in retaliation Natalia Nazarova, an actress already known, knocked out a chair from under her ex-girlfriend directly on the stage. The gash fell, severely injuring the coccyx, which caused an increased interest in Nazarova's personality.

After the injury, she developed suspicion, fear of the scene, so gradually the actress began to be replaced in the performances. There came a time when roles were not at all. The woman stopped all communication with colleagues. It was quite easy to do this, because in 1989 the Moscow Art Theater, which had a troupe of 150 people, split into two groups under Oleg Efremov and Tatyana Doronina. Stopped Natalia Ivanovna and invited to the cinema, where she played about twenty-six roles.

Filmography of the actress

In her asset there are almost no main roles, but all her characters remain in the memory forever, you just have to look at the picture with her participation. The most striking roles are:

• Verochka in Nikita Mikhalkov 's film based on A. Chekhov's works "An Unfinished Piece for a Mechanical Piano" (1976).
• The saleswoman Tamara in L. Menaker's painting "Young wife" (1978).
• Nyura in the comedy N. Ardashnikov and O. Efremov "The Old New Year" (1980).
• Nina Ivanova in the film A. Rogozhkin's "Miss millionaire" (1988).

Natalia Nazarova is an actress who starred in the most famous directors of the time. But the real calling card was the role in the painting by Peter Todorovsky "Favorite woman of mechanic Gavrilov" (1982).

Star duet with Lyudmila Gurchenko

In the picture of P. Todorovsky, as if woven from short stories, L. Gurchenko plays a 38-year-old woman, waiting in vain for her fiance at the door of the registry office. This is one of the brightest works, where her talent is truly revealed in a dramatic role. The role of girlfriend Lucy is performed by Natalia Nazarova, an actress whose personal life seems to be intertwined with the fate of the heroine. What does it all mean to the phrase uttered by Lucy: "Though once in a lifetime a woman must go insane." She managed not only to play along with Gurchenko, but also to show the power of her own talent, for she was in no way inferior to the eminent partner. Showing a woman strong, self-confident, she herself was a child, able to surprise the world every day.

But with each new role she seemed to grow into the clothes of her heroines, becoming a bit ridiculous, sometimes cheerful, sometimes snobbish, but always endlessly touching and funny.

Life after glory

After the transfer "Let them say" in 2010, the deserved artiste of the RSFSR Nazarov was included in the Union of Theater Workers. She was even offered to play small roles, but she realizes that it became impossible. The creative nature of a mentally ill woman found expression in artistic and applied art: Natalia Ivanovna embroider portraits, sew clothes. Her life flows according to her own laws. Natalia Nazarova, an actress whose personal life became public, once a week puts on her best outfit to go to the Vagankovskoye cemetery where Yury Bogatyrev is buried. She takes care of his grave and brings flowers, remaining the most devoted to his fan.
