Andreeva, Dina Andreevna

D.A. Andreeva was born on February 25 ( March 10 ), 1905 .

Since 1925, the actress MADT named after E. B. Vakhtangov . Teacher of the Theater School named after B.V. Schukin .

Died July 10, 1994 . She was buried in Moscow in the columbarium of the Don cemetery .

Teacher of the Schukin Theater School at the Vakhtangov Theater.

Since 1925, changing the unfashionable at that time name of Evdokia to the sonorous name of Dean, she became an actress of the Moscow Theater. Evg. Vakhtangov. This time coincided with the difficult stage of the formation of the troupe. Actually, in 1925, when the young actress joined the troupe, the theater. Vakhtangov was not yet - it was one of the studios (namely, the Third Studio) at the Art Theater, earnestly fighting for its independence. Only the next year after the arrival of Dina Andreeva, in 1926, the Third Studio separated from the Moscow Art Theater and became known as the Vakhtangov Theater.

With this theater, the actress forever connected her life - as an actress, she performed on his stage, and as a teacher, she taught at the Shchukin School at the Vakhtangov Theater. With this theater, she survived an evacuation in Omsk during World War II, where the theater also continued to work - in hunger and cold, and had to look for firewood somewhere for heating, which was not always possible; return back to Moscow; internal problems, disassembly and change ...

Among her students: Veniamin Smekhov, Natalia Gundareva.

A former student of Schukin actor Veniamin Smekhov wrote about Dina Andreeva: “Everything that Dina Andreevna plays - an episode or a role - is full of furious liveliness, concern for the character, partners, each spectator in the audience. She enters the audience, and a whirlwind flies with her. Everything is restless around her, and it is difficult for students to be lazy in the presence of such a concentrate of energy. Her rehearsals (I worked with her twice - at the School of Slander and the Bariak Barber) were distinguished by their extraordinary meticulousness and attachment to all the details of the scene. She did not very carefully formulate the preamble of the case, but she knew the case very well. One hundred pots will leave the student before Andreeva will let him reach the end of the passage. She made us be true without a hitch. She seemed to forget that in front of her were not finished artists, but students. But the struggle for truth, psychological certainty in her classes was so fascinating and honest (occasionally she could rudely comment on someone's stupidity), that all this resembled a good sports game. “Hello, brother, how are you?” - that’s all that you say at the door - but Andreeva will not leave this remark until the image’s biography, the biography of the day, the attitude towards “brother” merge in your voice and in your plastic “, Clarity of vision, accuracy of the assessment of the place where he entered, and so on.”

Dina Andreeva worked until her last days, giving the theater nearly 70 years (!).
