NS Would you like to dine in a relaxed atmosphere, at the next table with famous actors, poets, pop artists? Do you want to decorate an ordinary evening with the spirit of bohemia, creativity? Then the restaurant "Actor's House" will suit you perfectly.
H The name of this institution justifies itself 100%: "Actor's House" is the house where actors gather to take a break from a hard day, talk about art, hold a creative meeting or celebrate a solemn event. This is facilitated by the very location of the restaurant - it is located on Old Arbat, 35, opposite the theater. Vakhtangov. The staff here is proud that the "House of Actor" is known and loved by all the actors of Moscow, because it appeared back in 37! True, then the restaurant was located in a completely different place - on Tverskaya Street (Gorky Street in those days), and was known to the city bohemians as the WTO restaurant (the famous All-Union Theater Society), it was a great honor to get there! .. Unfortunately, the building on Tverskoy burned down in 1990, and the Soviet Union collapsed, but the restaurant, beloved by actors and Muscovites, was revived on the Arbat Street, a symbol of the culture of the new Russia.
T Since the "Actor's House" was originally conceived as an acting club, its menu is based on acting preferences. Mainly Russian and European cuisine is presented here, but there are also some Caucasian dishes that are especially loved by visitors (for example, Ossetian pies, which are prepared here according to signature recipes). In the "House of the Actor" you will be treated to simple, solid, inexpensive, but incredibly tasty and satisfying dishes - after all, the club is intended primarily for communication, which means that the meal should not interfere with this.
B Most of the recipes have survived from the WTO restaurant. These are, for example, exquisite "Pike perch Orly", "Brizol", cutlets "Admiral", which at one time ordered Plyatt, Utesov, Yanshin on Gorky Street ... sauce is a dish with a special history, its recipe was invented by the famous Jacob Rosenthal, the former director of the restaurant, whom his friends called Beard. Also on the menu you will find well-known modern surnames: one of the most luxurious appetizers is called "Big greetings from M. A. Eskina (director of the Central House of Actor)", "Shirvindtovski omelette" is prepared according to a recipe donated by Alexander Shirvindt himself.
H Oh, don't think that this cozy, in some ways even extravagant place is a kind of transcendental haven of stars, and mere mortals do not even dare to dream of it. Anyone who wants to have a delicious dinner, or maybe - suddenly get lucky! - to be photographed for memory with your favorite actor, you can always enter a quiet Arbat lane, go up to the sixth floor - and now the "Actor's House" opens its doors to you! ..

In 1937, an acting club appeared, in which theatrical figures spent time for rest and informal conversations. The Central House of Actor was founded by A.M. Eskin, from the end of the 80s his daughter, Margarita, was the head.

The institution was renamed in 1964 into the "Central House of Actor named after A. A. Yablochkina" in honor of the famous theater actress. Alexandra Yablochkina was one of those who actively promoted the idea of ​​creating an Actor's House, for many years she led the Russian Theater Society. For most of her life, Alexandra Alexandrovna performed on the stage of the Maly Theater.

The first address of the creative association was a house on Tverskaya Street. But a year after the fire in 1990, the House of the Actor of Moscow was located in the house number 35 on. Now theatrical collectives can rehearse their performances here free of charge. Many renowned actors, theaters and projects began their creative activities in these halls.

The history of the building

The actor's house on Arbat now occupies a mansion that resembles a castle. The house was built in 1913 by the architect V. Dubovsky in the neo-gothic style. The customer for the construction is Anna Filatova. On the side towers, the author of the project decided to install the figures of two knights in armor, which made the house recognizable. Some believe that the knight on the wall is the prototype of the bassoon from M. Bulgakov's novel The Master and Margarita, and the restaurant of the House of Actor on Arbat is mistaken for the restaurant of the All-Russian Theater Society from the same work.

The building occupied almost the entire block. It housed a female gymnasium, a boarding house and a tenement house. The interiors of the house were quite luxurious: marble staircases with oak railings, electric lifts, sewerage and running water to the bathroom of each apartment.

After the 1917 revolution, rich apartments were occupied by prominent figures of the Soviet regime, and some of the apartments were made communal. Large-scale renovation work was carried out in the 70s, as a result of which a significant part of the interior decoration was destroyed. The premises were occupied by the Ministry of Culture of the USSR, a jewelry store was located on the ground floor. Since the beginning of the 90s, "House with Knights" was transferred to the use of the Central House of the actor.

Central House of Actor named after A. A. Yablochkina: video

The Central House of Actor is a unique creative association that has no analogues in the whole world. It was organized by Alexander Moiseevich Eskin in 1937 as an acting club, as a place for recreation and informal communication of theater people.

Over the years of its existence, the Actor's House has become the center of the creative life of the intelligentsia, performing work on professional and social support for theater workers, both beginners and stage veterans. After the fire in the house on Tverskaya (Gorky st., 16), the House of the Actor occupies a room on the Arbat, 35, which was transferred to the Central House of Artists for free use by the decree of the President of Russia.

This House has become a place for lively actors' communication, an attractive center for the creative intelligentsia of Moscow and Russia as a whole: the Actor's House provides its halls and stages for rehearsals of performances and their distribution to creative teams free of charge. The biography of those who are now the pride of modern theater began here.

Theater "Workshop P. Fomenko", "Quartet I", theater of A. Kalyagin, theater of A. Dzhigarkhanyan began under the Arbat roof. Projects were carried out by O. Menshikov, M. Kozakov, O. Aroseva, I. Muravyova, L. Gurchenko, T. Dogileva, O. Mysina.

An important role in the formation of the House was played by Margarita Aleksandrovna Eskina (1933-2009), who led the House from 1987 until her last day. It was with her that the acting community managed to defend the building on Arbat, 35. The creative life of the acting club found its unique expression.

Today at the Central House of Artists there are 5 theatrical venues operating simultaneously: the Big Hall, the Small Hall, the Chamber, the Living Room, the Art Salon. Creative life is in full swing here: evenings, premieres, presentations of new books, seminars, exhibitions, master classes, festivals.

The House of the Actor actively cooperates with Russian foreign centers of science and culture, annually forms creative groups and directs them to perform in front of compatriots. Paris, Berlin, Copenhagen, Helsinki, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Bratislava are permanent foreign addresses of the House's theater lounges.

The theater lounge of the House of the Actor works not only in European cultural centers. Her addresses can also be found in the Russian provinces. Every year festivals of Russian theaters are held here, uniting the acting community of a huge country in the framework of the Arbat Meetings project.

The CDA has a Bureau of Youth Projects, whose activities are aimed at unleashing the creative possibilities of a novice actor. It includes a series of evenings: "Tartist Initiation", "Meeting freshmen of theatrical universities", "Students are joking" - traditional April Fools' evenings.

The life of an actor from the first steps to creative maturity is the focus of the House. Every month the veterans of the stage are provided with material and creative help. In the House of the Actor, there are numerous clubs and sections for professional interests.

Particularly popular among actors are the "Actors' Meetings" organized by L. Chernovskaya, which brings together actors from different theaters. This is a classic skit, performed "for friends" in the relaxed atmosphere of the acting club. Since 1992, at the House of Actor, there has been a Center for the Development of Children's Intelligence and Creativity for Children of Actors (Children's School), which provides a comprehensive course of preschool training.

Afisha - Central House of Actor named after A.A. Yablochkina

The play "Do not part with your loved ones", which premieres at the Central House of Actor, made a strong impression with a modern look at the heroes of the classic play by Alexander Volodin. Under the burning songs of Zemfira, using a minimal amount of scenery, and props that can be counted literally on one hand, young actors involve the audience in their not simple life, full of stormy and emotional events. The background is a video sequence, like a family documentary film. The main characters, only after going through divorce, suffering and trials by betrayal and condemnation of others, return to each other, because they understand the main thing - they love and cannot live without this love. Immediately after the divorce, Katya ends up in the hospital, where Mitya finds her with dull eyes and broken by physical suffering. But even there she is still his beloved, who does not want to let him go, because she is afraid of losing forever. Director Roman Shevchenko staged a play written in the 70s in a dynamic, modern and emotional way. Now young people are freer from other people's opinions, but this has not made the relationship between a man and a woman easier. They suffer as much from separation, jealousy and misunderstanding as officially married couples. This is probably why the divorce procedure is exaggerated to a farce and embellished, so to speak about an event disgusting for a young family. Both partners are defenseless against anything that separates them. And only one is their strength - they love each other. The film of the same name with good actors was somehow invisible to me at that time, ordinary. And you won't get bored at this performance. Two hours of the characters' nervous tension, confronting circumstances, funny and heartbreaking, beautiful and ugly. The contrast of white clothes and a black background of the stage, which really does not exist. Reach out, take a step, and you're one of them. The acting work of the main character, who plays Katya, made a strong impression. I really liked her bright rival, Irina, who has a beautiful voice. Parallel stories from the lives of the heroes were what is called laughter through tears. Is it okay to laugh when a police officer is forced to look at pictures of children at gunpoint? When a woman, distraught with hopelessness, handcuffed her sleeping husband so that he would not run away. Then comes the trial and the former spouses share the sofa and the TV. And suddenly - a misfortune, a hospital. This is already scary. Because we are all already there, inside this story, we have forgotten about time and reality. We are waiting for one thing - he will return or not, and he will return. With oranges in a string bag, in a dressing gown draped over her shoulders, still weak in body, but it doesn't matter. They are together and this is the main thing. The young actors on stage are incredibly sincere and touching, the love story is told with light irony and emotionally in tune with the music that accompanies the action. I love such returns in the 70s, the atmosphere of which was amazingly able to convey to those who know about those years from books and films, and have not experienced and felt personally. Golden youth and simple guys and girls, music of the first vocal and instrumental ensembles and dances at discos, miniskirts and platform shoes. All this came back for a short while, came to life and sounded on the stage of the Theater of the House of the Actor.

Today the House of Actor on Arbat is working for the theatrical community. This is where theater people meet and communicate. It has a long and not always happy history. The central house of the actor on Arbat was formed by Alexander Moiseevich Eskin in 1937. He was supported by many prominent figures of the theater. Initially, it was conceived as a kind of informal club for meetings and communication of people of art. For these purposes, the government of the USSR allocated and transferred a building on Tverskaya Street in house number 16. It housed (aka the cinema hall), a restaurant, a cafe, many offices of employees and cozy rooms for creative evenings. Even in a very restrained Stalinist era, an atmosphere of relaxedness, wit and creativity reigned here.

Freedom and Creativity Club

The atmosphere of freethinking, games and humor quickly formed into skits, in which Rostislav Plyatt, Maria Mironova and many other legendary actors took part with pleasure. In 1964, the House of the Actor was named after the great actress Alexandra Yablochkina, since she was not only the “ruler of hearts” on the stage, but also for a long time headed the central and Moscow branch of the theater society. Alexander Eskin since the opening of the House of Actor until his death in 1985 was its permanent director. Besides him, the House has always had public directors: Evgeny Ozerov and others. As head of the CDA, Margarita Eskina replaced her father.

The 1991 fire and a period of timelessness

The creative environment has not been spared either. In February 1991, the House of the Actor was

It was set on fire and completely unusable. For almost two years, the theatrical community did not have a shelter, until almost two years later the Ministry of Culture did not shelter it in its building on Old Arbat. Since then, the House of the Actor on Arbat has been known. As soon as the employees settled in the room, as soon as the rooms were decorated and the meetings began, claims appeared about the transfer of the building to other hands: Rossvyazohrankultura decided to place its apparatus in most of the building. Boris Yeltsin's Russia about the transfer of the building on the Old Arbat to the Central House of Artists did not resolve the situation. The decree was not accepted for execution by Rossvyazohrankultura.

New house on Arbat: times of formation in new conditions

The house of the actor on Arbat withstood all external attacks, but an intense creative life did not stop inside: the country was changing, the foundations were changing. Not only new types of art were needed, in addition, in difficult times it was necessary to support the veterans of the stage and help the formation of promising youth. The House of Actor on Arbat was supported by many famous creative people, speaker of the Federation Council Sergei Mironov and President Dmitry Medvedev. Rossvyazokhrankultura was abolished, and the claims were canceled. Since then, life in the House of the Actor has been going smoothly, and a stable opportunity has emerged to continue the traditions of the Soviet theater and create new ones. The head of the CDA is still Margarita Eskina.

Meeting point: Arbat 35, Actor's House

Today, for the members of the theatrical community, the question does not arise where to meet. The place is known and dear to everyone: Arbat, 35, Actor's House. There are obligatory skits for the opening of the season and for the birthday - February 14th. The Actor's House on Arbat constantly meets foreign colleagues and holds various concerts. There is a restaurant in the CDA, where, upon prior request, you can hold a celebration even for mere mortals. But the main thing is that the House remains a concentration of creative people, and many interesting projects were born within its walls, which delight the audience of Moscow and Russia. Visiting theater workers always come to the Central House of Artists, because where, if not here, you can meet with many colleagues at once.
