She is called the "silent maximalist." Quiet - because it preaches Christian humility and never raises its voice, is not capricious, and does not demand for itself. A maximalist - because she strives to do everything thoroughly and is not used to compromising with her conscience.
It would seem that this is impossible in the film industry, but Spiricheva has starred in more than fifty films in recent years. In addition, Tamara Ivanovna is one of the leading actresses of the Russian Ecclesiastical Theater "Glas".
Biography
Tamara Ivanovna Spiricheva was born in 1940 in the Gorky region. After graduating from school, she entered the Gorky Theater Studio. She worked in the theaters of Arkhangalsk, Simferopol, Kirov and Moscow.
After some time, the actress began to be recognized on the street. She was very embarrassed, and she did not admit that she was “the same”. Then I realized that this was part of the profession, and ceased to be embarrassed.
Tamara later received a demonstration lesson from Alexei Batalov: when he left the theater, he willingly spent time communicating with the audience. Everyone who was given an autograph was asked what his name was and wrote a short wish.
Spirichev received her first theatrical experience in Arkhangelsk, and after traveling to various cities she played for a long time at the Gogol Theater in Moscow. While the performances and roles corresponded to the "inner voice" of the actress, she played a variety of roles. When she was already under forty, the theater’s repertoire began to change, notes of vulgarity appeared in the scripts. And the performances began to be staged "to the public’s needs." Tamara Ivanovna could not stand this - she did not understand such a theater.
According to external data, she could still play young, but inside something resisted. Spiricheva got used to the fact that her roles are kind and bright, helping people to raise spirituality and feel inner purity. And when obscene speech began to sound on the stage and the actors had to be exposed - she began to abandon roles.
In the early nineties, she had a creative crisis: Tamara Ivanovna thought that she had the most worthless profession in the world. The artist does not produce anything concrete, does not teach anyone and does not heal - why is he needed?
Astakhov Sergey and Belevich Tatyana, actors of the Glas Theater, helped her to get out of this state. Tamara was acquainted with them, even when they were artists of the Moskontsert. Colleagues invited her to play the role of Pulcheria Ivanovna in the play "Servant of God Nikolai".
This work helped to get out of the crisis, and Spiricheva began playing in two theaters at once: she remained in the troupe of the Gogol Theater and sometimes played in the Voice. In her former favorite theater there were friends, the familiar atmosphere. And then age began to give roles. Therefore, it was very difficult to leave for another theater.
However, then in the “Voice” she began to give more and more roles. Especially close were the images of Vasily Shukshin’s mother according to his stories, then the role in the performances of “The Marriage of Balzaminov” and “The Examiner with Interchange”. But not only because of this, Spiricheva joined the Voice. She had some inner feeling that this theater needed it, and she needed it. And that here she has a perspective.
In the troupe "Glasa" the actors are very different: age, and youth, and middle age. Therefore, the performances are very lively, interesting. And now the actress is not ashamed of what she says from the stage. And for what he does in the theater.
Movie career
We can say that the Glas Theater also gave Tamara a ticket to the cinema. Actress Julia Sules sent her photos to the agency, and very soon an invitation came to the first film. She became famous after the film "We are from the Future", although she played an episodic role there. The actress herself liked acting in the movie "We Strangely Met."
The best films in the portfolio of the actress: "We are from the Future" (2008), "Metro" (2011), "Christmas Tree-2" (2012). The best series: "Emergency. Emergency" (2012), "Method" 2015 ", " Life and Fate "(2012), " Hugging the Sky "(2013), " Sklifosovsky (2012).
In order to act in films, Tamara Ivanovna, as a believer, received the blessing of the priest. He told her that "you need to fill the space with yourself." That is, if space is not filled with good, evil will fill it, there is no other in life.
Of course, there are series that you later want to refuse, as the actress says. Because when you act in film, you know only your piece, your role, but in general you cannot capture the idea. In this case, you have to calm down on the fact that in your role there was no muck and vulgarity. And from roles that were originally "not her", she refuses immediately. She always wanted to play highly moral heroines who can inspire other people by their example. Otherwise, why all?
