Life Time
26 August 1947 - 7 March 2009

Jan Arlazorov (on his father - Jan Shulrufer, but took a more sonorous name of his mother) - a theater actor and pop artist. He graduated from the Shchukin School, worked at the Central Children's Theatre, and then remembered it with gratitude: they taught how to attract the attention of children, who, as you know, are more direct than adults. This was later very useful on the stage. And here's the adult theater. He did not like the Moscow Council: “They walk and talk, I could not understand it.”

Jan Arlazorov (on his father - Jan Shulrufer, but took a more sonorous name of his mother) - a theater actor and pop artist. He graduated from the Shchukin School, worked at the Central Children's Theatre, and then remembered it with gratitude: they taught how to attract the attention of children, who, as you know, are more direct than adults. This was later very useful on the stage. And here's the adult theater. He did not like the Moscow Council: “They walk and talk, I could not understand it.” And although he worked in this theater for more than 15 years, playing mostly second-rate roles, then left without looking back at his favorite stage.
The artist of the conversational genre he was unsurpassed. Arlazorov was almost the first in the fatherland to introduce into pop everyday life what is now called “stand-up” in the West (and here too) – direct communication with the audience. Not according to a pre-written script, but “live”. The difference between stage and theater is that you have to improvise a lot. In France, during the time of it, there was such a genre as “cabotinage” – a wandering artist stops in the middle of the square and begins to “start” passers-by and soon a crowd of spectators gathers. Of course, the Cabotiners’ incomes depended very much on how much they managed to interest the public. And only artists “from God” were decided on such performances. Almost the same method, adjusted, of course, for a modern concert hall, used and Arlazorov. And left the stage, he admitted, wet with sweat, like a surgeon after a severe operation. The variety images created by him are a good-natured fictionalist “man”, “cashier”.
Andrey Danilko Later he “copyed” the conductor from it, as they say, went to quotes: “Hey, man, can you whistle?” You'll be a teapot.
Jan Arlazorov died in 2009 in a Berlin clinic. Buried in Moscow.
