A native of the capital of the Russian Federation was born July 26, 1971. From childhood, the future actor dreamed of becoming a part of the film industry and playing the most diverse roles. Only his grandmother could appreciate his talent, because from the rest he tried to keep his plans for life a secret. And who knows, maybe today we wouldnāt know such a talented actor as Sergei, if after graduation he wouldnāt have secretly submitted all the documents to the acting school.
A family
None of Sergeiās parents was seriously interested in art, however, his mother loved to spend free time in front of the canvas, doing painting. Both parents received a technical education. Mom was an engineer, and father was a test engineer. Both indigenous people of Moscow.
The place of residence of the family left much to be desired. Before the boy was 4 years old, the family lived in a two-story hut on the outskirts of the city, in the Koptevo district. Then they have a more comfortable apartment in the area of āāst. Dybenko overlooking the picturesque nature.
Often the boy spent time in front of the TV. However, he did not watch cartoons, but films. While watching, he tried to repeat previously memorized remarks. A special influence on him was made by Andrei Mironov. The boy was delighted with his game and dreamed of becoming an actor in the future too.
Childhood
As a second grader, Sergei Shnyrev was already gradually moving toward his childhood dream. So he passed tests in "Jumble", where he received his first experience on the set and felt the atmosphere that prevailed on it.
It is also worth noting how Sergey passed these tests. When the director asked him to show joy, the boy did not get confused and with a whistle threw his school bag right up to the ceiling and damaged the chandelier. He enthralled the audience. Then he was asked to perform a love scene. Sergei knelt down and emotionally began to read the verse. In general, the tests went off with a bang.
School
We can say that in his school years Seryozha was in the clouds, so he did not pay much attention to his performance, which, by the way, was lame. The boy did what he liked - he was an actor. At school, he did not particularly talk about his goals and desires, so he protected himself from possible ridicule that could sow a grain of doubt.
He did not need to doubt; on the contrary, he tried to strengthen his belief that a great acting future awaited him. His grandmother helped him believe this, it was she who became the first fan of the young actor. She liked every grandson's performance, she was always extremely happy after his home performances.
In childhood, the actor loved to play in the yard with his friends. He enjoyed cycling, especially during the summer holidays. He spent the winter time playing snowballs and ice-skating. In general, nothing unusual.
Parents suspected the young manās dream, but still directed him on a different path. So, after graduating from high school, Sergei applied immediately to two universities. To the Institute of Geodesy, as the parents desired, and to the Moscow Art Theater - of their own free will and secretly from everyone.
University
How glad Sergei Shnyrev was when he first entered the Moscow Art Theater at the acting faculty. At the entrance exam, the young man arrived a little sandwiched. However, seeing that Tabakov was sitting in the hall with his students, he immediately set himself up for victory and managed to free himself in time. This change has become noticeable to everyone around, including the selection committee, which really liked the performance of Sergei.
During his student years, Sergey saw at the university future star actors such as Anastasia Zavorotnyuk, Maxim Drozd.
Since Sergei was a man with a fine mental organization, he was often offended by the comments of teachers. For this reason, it was possible to find a young man sobbing in the walls of the university.
Studying with such teachers as Igor Zolotovitsky, Natalya Zhuravleva and Alla Pokrovskaya, the future actor gained experience and gained useful skills for his future profession. He received his diploma in 1993.
