My Profession
This theater in Moscow on Sadovaya-Samotecnaya is now known... all over the world. And it all started with a small doll Bi-ba-bo, which Sergei Obraztsov's mother gave him in childhood.
To go from a small doll to a huge renowned theater — agree, not everyone has that ability. What qualities must one possess, how obsessed one must be with their work, for this to happen?
While reading “My Profession,” you will hear the voice of a person who sincerely loved his work and his audience. And most importantly — wanted to make the world better and kinder. “The process of creativity,” he wrote, “is like the well-known episode from a Russian fairy tale, in which Ivan Tsarevich earns a chest, and from the chest comes a hare, and from the hare a duck, and from the duck an egg, and from the egg a needle.
Moreover, the hare tries to run away, the duck — to fly away, the egg — to sink. All this complicated process would be meaningless and foolish if it all ended with an ordinary needle. It’s not about the needle, but about the fact that when you break it, Koshchei the Deathless will die, Vasilisa the Beautiful will be saved, and good will triumph.”
Obraztsov addresses his book not only to colleagues — actors and directors, but to each of us. And believe me, it inspires better than all motivational texts combined.
