Olga Prokofeva

Olga Prokofieva is a brilliant actress whom any Russian TV viewer knows by sight as Zhanna Arkadyevna from the popular TV series “My Fair Nanny”. After participating in the sitcom, the artist received offers to play in such a role for a long time, but Olga tactfully refused the directors.

The actress considers herself primarily a theater performer. For more than 30 years she has been devoted to one metropolitan collective - the theater. Mayakovsky.

Olga Evgenievna Prokofieva was born in the town of Odintsovo near Moscow. The girl turned out to have an interesting pedigree. As the actress herself later said in an interview, her father's ancestors served as priests, and on the maternal side were landowners and horse breeders. Nevertheless, the family happiness of the parents of the future star of the stage did not work out. Olga and her older sister Larisa were raised by their mother Sofya Prokhorovna without a father.

There were few entertainments for children in a provincial town, so little Olya took the cultural program into her own hands. She wrapped herself in a pillowcase, wound a curtain on top, stood on the tips of shoes with stiff soles and portrayed a ballerina. A lively, spontaneous girl, having barely learned to walk, dreamed one day to go on the stage of the theater.

Having barely waited for the last call, yesterday's schoolgirl hurried to take the entrance exams to the theater and failed them. But then Olga vowed to certainly enter the acting department in a year. In order not to sit at home in vain, Prokofieva went to work, choosing a profession that was unexpected for a girl who had dreamed of becoming an actress all her life - an accountant on a local TV channel. But, working on television, the future actress did not stop preparing for exams, and all her relatives, friends, acquaintances and even acquaintances of acquaintances knew about it.

One day a friend of her mother, who worked as a road inspector, stopped the violator and in a conversation with him found out that he was studying at GITIS. Remembering Olya’s cherished dream, the inspector offered the driver a deal: he didn’t take away his driver’s license, but as gratitude, he prepared his girlfriend’s daughter for exams. The violator agreed and faithfully fulfilled his promise. It was the future media mogul and founder of the NTV channel, and then a 4th year student of the directing department, Vladimir Gusinsky.

Gusinsky diligently taught Prokofiev everything he knew himself, but she still failed the entrance exam. Prokofiev's entrant tried her best, but initially she did not have a chance, because she did not like the selection committee outwardly.

After the exam, the same teacher, who was the first to speak out against Olga's admission to the acting department, saw the genuine grief of the girl, who had just broken her life's dream, and advised her to try herself in directing. The applicant wiped away her tears and went to study at the course of the famous Soviet theater director Andrei Goncharov.

Olga Prokofieva graduated from GITIS with honors, delighting all the teachers with her diploma production of the play "Tomorrow was the war", where she brilliantly played a teacher twice her age.

The talented graduate was vying to invite 2 of her former teachers to her. Andrei Goncharov invited him to the Mayakovsky Theater, and Mark Zakharov to Lenkom. The choice was not easy, but Olga decided not to be separated from her classmates, who almost all went to Goncharov.

At the Moscow Academic Theater. Mayakovsky Olga Prokofieva has been on stage for almost 30 years. In her youth, she played May in Tennessee Williams' play Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Rosalina in Grigory Gorin's The Plague on Both Your Houses, Lydia Varavka in a production based on Maxim Gorky's novel The Life of Klim Samgin and others.

For the creation of the image of Maria Moskaleva in the play "Uncle's Dream" the actress received one of the most prestigious theater awards "Crystal Turandot".

"Uncle's Dream" is still on in Mayakovka, and the artist still plays Maria Moskaleva in it.

In 2016, the performances "The Caucasian Chalk Circle" and "All My Sons" were released with the participation of the actress. A year later, Prokofieva was already delighting fans with her performance in the play "Pygmalion".

Olga Prokofieva made her film debut, having already established herself as a serious theatrical actress. Andrey Eshpai invited her to the psychological melodrama "The Humiliated and the Offended". The role of Prokofieva was episodic. But she was lucky to get into the frame with such stars as Alexander Abdulov, Anastasia Vyazemskaya, Nikita Mikhalkov, and they had a lot to learn.

The characteristic actress has not yet developed a relationship with a serious full-length movie, but she was vying with each other to be invited to appear in serials. Olga Prokofieva brought national fame to “My Fair Nanny”, where she played with Sergei Zhigunov, Boris Smolkin, and even shared one dressing room with Anastasia Zavorotnyuk.

The acting quartet worked together so well that after Nanny the actors played together in the adventurous vaudeville Shakespeare never dreamed of.

The friendship of the applicant Prokofieva with the tutor Gusinsky did not result in anything serious. Then Olga was too keen on the dream of becoming an actress. The romance began only when the girl graduated from GITIS. The future media mogul left the family for her sake. He showered his beloved with flowers and even bought her an expensive car, persuading her to marry him, but Olga did not dare. After living together for 4 years, they broke up.

The reason for breaking up with Gusinsky was Prokofieva's colleague, actor Yuri Sokolov. They played lovers on the stage of Mayakovka in the play Tomorrow Was War.

The gallant handsome man stormed the fortress, which turned out to be impregnable for the future media mogul. Olga was not even embarrassed by the fact that her new lover already had 2 ex-wives and one daughter. She left Gusinsky and almost immediately married Sokolov. 4 years later, Olga gave birth to Yuri's son Alexander, and after 12 years of marriage, the couple divorced.

Yuri left like a man, leaving his ex-wife and son an apartment in Moscow on Vernadsky Avenue. But then he got married for the fourth time, having adopted the child of the young wife from his first marriage, they had two more children, and the issue of living space became an edge. The ex-husband demanded that Prokofieva return the apartment, and when she refused, he went to court.

The litigation continues to this day.

Now the actress is not officially married, but when asked about her personal life, she replies with a smile that she is doing well. According to Olga, she prefers the European model of relationships, when a woman finds happiness not in marriage, but with loved ones. Rare photos of her relatives also end up on Prokofieva's Instagram page, which is entirely devoted to her creative activity.
