Childhood and youth Andrei Krasko was born in Leningrad on August 10 in the family of a student of the Leningrad Theater Institute Ivan Ivanovich Krasko the future People's Artist of Russia and the teacher Kira Vasilievna Petrova. Soon, Andrei's parents parted. The boy stayed with his mother. And yet, in different periods of life, Andrei dreamed of being not only an artist, but also a doctor, an astronaut, a driver.

The teenager’s dreams changed often, but after school he decided completely - he will become an artist. Andrei’s acting biography was complex, despite family ties. The first attempt to enter the theater university was unsuccessful, as the young man was not preparing for exams. Therefore, he worked for a year in the theater, mounting the scenery for the stage.

The theater at the end of the university in the year Andrei began working in the Tomsk Youth Theater, where almost the entire course, at which Krasko studied, hit the distribution. This happened by decision of the first secretary of the Leningrad regional party committee Grigory Romanov, who wanted to send young artists to the newly opened Tomsk theater.

According to Andrei Ivanovich, many of his classmates were looking for reasons not to go: they urgently pregnant, remembered about the grandmothers, who should be careed for. Most of the "exile" actors quickly fled from the Youth Theater. But Krasko himself lasted 2 years. Moreover, in the memoirs of this period of life, the artist spoke warmly, telling that this work became cognitive for him and gave hardening in a professional plan.

On the advice of the best friend, actor Andrei Urgant, Krasko entered the Leningrad Theater of the Lenin Komsomol. Gennady Mikhailovich Oporkov, the head of the theater, once gave Krasko to read the script of the play “Kukaracha”. Andrei was proposed to play the main role in it, and he played, and talentedly. However, the work was the first and last for him. In general, the performance was approved, but the image presented by Krasko caused the indignation of a number of spectators, who hastened to report to the “lawlessness” to the corresponding authorities.

The district policeman, which was portrayed by Andrei, turned out to be “tireless”: the upper buttons are unbuttoned, the sleeves are rolled up, too cheerful. On the second day after the performance, the artist was handed the agenda, sending him to serve in the army in the Arkhangelsk region. They tried to intercede for the actor, the director Dinar Asanov was especially busy, because he was involved in the Drama "Boys".

But everything turned out to be in vain. So in the year Andrei went for the Northern Polar Circle.

While the artist served, Dinara Asanova and Gennady Oporkov were gone. When Krasko returned from the service, no one was waiting for him. The actor had to look for a different job, but the search was unsuccessful. So the lyceum fell into the small city of Dimitrovgrad, into the provincial theater, in the courtyard of which, as Krasko joked, goats grazed. Here, as Andrei Ivanovich reported in an interview, besides him, there were only 2 people with a theater education.

In parallel with this place of work, the artist tried himself as a DJ at local disco. He left, more precisely, he escaped when he was offered a role in the film - the theater’s leadership did not want to release Krasko to shoot. Andrei had to survive, working in the cooperative sewed jackets and trousers, made fences in the cemetery, and the builder was engaged in European repair of apartments.

And the actor was engaged in breaking up. To do this, he collected a little money from his fees, borrowed a certain amount from his parents and friend Urgant and bought a used car. At the end of the X, Krasko returned to the theater, began working in the St. Petersburg "shelter of comedians" on Sadovaya. The bright roles of this period were Venochka in the play “On Cable Work in the fall of 69”, created based on the poem by Venedikt Erofeev “Moscow-Petushki”, and Talekin in “Talerykin’s death” according to the comedy of Alexander Sukhovo-Kobylin.

Films in the middle of X Krasko went to work as a driver at the film studio. Soon after, Andrei found out that the studio would act in the studio, the new project “Street of Broken Lights”, promising to become successful, and began to persistently ask him. But the artist got only a few minutes on the screen. The appearance of the Balaban “brother” was episodic. The role in the series “National Security Agent” helped wake up popular Krasko.

The tape came out in the year and immediately riveted the attention of the audience. And although Andrei found himself somewhat in the shadow of the protagonist, which was played by Mikhail Porechenkov, the star has come for the artist.

The tape was doomed to success. And the artist’s comedic talent was remarkably manifested in the series “Plot” and “Enchanted Plot”. Personal life Personal life Krasko was very saturated. Andrei’s first wife, in his youth, was his classmate Natalya Akimova. Young people got married, being students, but very quickly dispersed.

In this marriage, Andrei had a son Ivan the real name Jan Andrzey - in honor of his grandfather and father. This marriage existed for quite some time, but exclusively on paper. Together, the couple almost did not live.

On the night of July 4, on the set of the film near Odessa, the actor suddenly felt bad. On the same day, Krasko died of heart failure. The artist’s characters consumed strong drinks in the frame, so the tabloids immediately suggested that his own detrimental habit helped the actor so reliably, and alcohol became the real cause of death.
