In Moscow, a creative evening of actor and singer Anton Makarsky took place. The well-known actor of cinema, theater, dubbing, and musician Anton Makarsky is not a fan of online communication. He confesses that it is very important for him to see the emotions of his audience, talk to them, feel their energy, and look into their eyes. That is why the actor is always ready for new creative meetings with the audience. Especially when they are dedicated to literary art.
The latest such meeting took place at the Nesterenko Center, a creative space in Mar'ina Roshcha in Moscow, which brings together professionals from various fields of culture, art, and journalism. The cozy atmosphere of the center encourages heartfelt conversations about eternal values. The audience wants intelligent conversations, intelligent films, intelligent songs, and great poets. Brodsky, Pasternak, Tsvetaeva, Levitansky, Zabolotsky... The actor can read Brodsky for hours. "Brodsky is both a teacher and an enlightener to me. He has awakened not only love but also a taste for poetry in me," the actor said in an interview.
At the same time, Makarsky admits that he easily remembers the complex poetic constructions of the great poet. They deeply resonate with his soul, responding to some inner thoughts and experiences of the actor himself. According to him, what is close is easy to remember. And what he doesn't fully agree with or wants to argue with is harder to remember. That's why, for example, he reads Tsvetaeva with a prompt on his phone. And sometimes he may forget the lyrics of songs. Fortunately, the actor's wife, the famous singer Victoria Makarskaya, is always there and can "cover" him.
For several years now, the actors have been touring Russian cities with the musical-poetic project "Live Concert". It is a synergy of very good songs - from well-known world hits (such as Charles Aznavour's "Eternal Love") to those specially written for the artists ("Church by the Road", "White Birds") and the performance of poems. By the way, the next big "Live Concert" of the artists will take place in Sochi on July 8, on Family, Love, and Fidelity Day. And the autumn tour will start in October. Dozens of Russian cities will be on the schedule. The audience has always welcomed the artists very warmly. And they respond in kind. They don't suffer from "star disease" and don't refuse to communicate with their audience.
At the poetry evening in Moscow, viewers from different cities who watched the live broadcast of the evening (and the remote audience exceeded 100,000 viewers) sent their poems, and Anton Makarsky read them "from the sheet" live. The authors had the unique opportunity to hear their works performed by a true master of the art of words. "Such meetings are valuable because they involve different people who need each other. Someone writes poems, someone performs them, and someone knows how to listen. Many live for the sake of such meetings, where there is an opportunity to share their talent - creation, performance, the talent of an attentive listener. Today, it turned out that all three of these components were together," the actor shared his impressions. And he asked not to hesitate to send him their literary works.
According to Anton Makarsky, he is currently engaged in the creation of author's cinema together with director Roman Gangano, where there is something to play: a deep script, distinctive roles. His work in TV series, which he has been doing for many years, is "on pause".
