Actress Elena Polyanskaya is primarily known for her roles in theatrical productions. However, from time to time she appears on film sets. The girl made her mark by participating in several television series, winning the hearts of many viewers. Elena has major roles in the serial films “13”, “Gypsy Happiness”, “Loyalty”.

BIOGRAPHY

As a child, Elena Polyanskaya enthusiastically studied in the theater studio and was going to become an actress.
But after school I entered the Faculty of Journalism at Belgorod State University. After studying there for a year, I decided to try to fulfill my childhood dream - and passed the selection to GITIS. For some time, the girl managed to combine her studies at two universities, but then she transferred to the Shchukin School, and had to forget about everything else. However, Elena still graduated from the Faculty of Journalism in 2014, but does not consider journalism to be her profession. “It’s a gift to my mom,” she says of her diploma.

At the Theater School. B.V. Shchukina Polyanskaya studied at the course of V.P. Nikolaenko and graduated in 2012. She was accepted into the troupe of the N.V. Theater. Gogol, which was soon reformed. In the same year, Elena Polyanskaya joined the ARCADIA theater team.

Childhood and early career

Russian television actress Elena Polyanskaya was born on September 4, 1988 in Belgorod. The parents of the future actress immediately noticed that the girl was drawn to art. From the age of six she was seriously interested in dancing. A little later I decided to try myself as an actress and began going to a theater club.

It all started with the fact that, as part of the school theater, she participated in various sketches based on the works of famous playwrights. For example, N.V. Gogol. The actress realized that she was very interested in all this and decided to try herself in a theater studio. The actress went to a theater group, which was attached to the State Institute of Arts and Culture. The girl immediately found a common language with the team leader, Olga Aleksandrovna Fedorenko. It was this woman who instilled in Polyanskaya a love of theatrical activity.

However, Polyanskaya did not immediately decide to connect her life with the acting profession. As a child, she considered actors to be "superbeings." And even now she believes that talent for most of them is given from above. Polyanskaya considered herself an ordinary girl, and her parents insisted that her daughter get a more serious profession.

That's why, after graduating from school, she devoted herself to journalism. And she studied at the appropriate institute in her hometown. However, after a year, she became bored with the alien profession. Elena decided to become a student at GITIS and went to the capital of Russia. The talented girl passed the selection, although not right away. We'll talk about her tenacity next. And for some time after admission, she combined her studies in two educational institutions at once. However, after transferring to the Shchukin School, journalism had to be temporarily abandoned. There was simply no time for anything other than learning the basics of acting.

In 2014, already a famous actress, Polyanskaya received a diploma in journalism. She did this act for the sake of her mother. She does not consider herself a professional journalist, and for her a diploma is just a gift to a loved one.

In 2012, Polyanskaya graduated from the Shchukin Theater School and became an actress at the N. V. Gogol Theater. In addition, she played in the ARCADIA theater. There are many bright, notable roles in her career. She loves her work on stage. She loves that she can bring her own vision to a piece. Unlike cinema, where the unquestioning authority of the director is felt. And also, the result here will depend on each member of the film crew. Even if the actor plays well, it is not a fact that the film will turn out good. This has happened more than once in the girl’s life.

Polyanskaya admits that in her work she tries to adhere to certain signs, and this helps her in her work. For example, before a performance a girl always wears the same jeans and never cuts her hair. And in the play based on Chekhov’s play “Three Sisters,” she always wore a certain bow in the first act. If it weren’t for him, Polyanskaya says, everything would have been lost.

Also, as a student at Pike, the actress first appeared in films. It was a small role in the film “Someone Is Here...”, released in 2010. And soon she got the main role in the mini-series “The Mushroom King”.

In 2011, the actress had to work with the heroes of Turkish cinema. The girl got a role in the dramatic film “September”. And two years later she played in another Turkish film - “Goodbye, Katya.”

Three Russian artists were involved in this project. And Polyanskaya, despite her young age, played the mother of the main character. Initially, she really liked the script. It was assumed that she would play a woman who experienced many bright moments in life - strong love, the birth of a child, the death of loved ones. However, the girl did not like the result of the work. The film was shot in Georgia, in the city of Batumi. At that time, the girl was completing her studies at a theater university and was torn between Moscow and the film set in Georgia. She simply did not have the opportunity to work like a human being. Therefore, she constantly flew back and forth on planes, with transfers. She worked nineteen hours a day. This was such a difficult experience in the career of an actress.

Theater

At the institute, Elena had several notable works: Irina in “Three Sisters”, Eileen in the play “The Island” based on the play by M. McDonagh, Claudia in the production of “The Counterfeit Coin” based on M. Gorky.

Performances of the ARCADIA Theater with the participation of Elena Polyanskaya: “The Patchwork and the Cloud” based on the fairy tale by S. Prokofieva, “Balagan” based on the play by C. Maury, the reading “Servants and Snow” based on the play by A. Murdoch.

The actress also participates in productions of the White Ball studio directed and taught by the Shchukin School Pavel Lyubimtsev. In 2014, the premiere of the play “The Feast of Predators” took place, where the actress got the main role - Madame Sophie. And in “Run” based on M. A. Bulgakov, Elena plays the role of Seraphim.

The actress loves working on stage, sometimes it even seems that theater is much more interesting to her than cinema. In an interview, she admitted: “What I like about theater is that in cinema the director says – motor! Then – stop! And then - you didn’t play like that, you should do it like this, and you’re within limits, because the material needs to be filmed. But in the theater the director tells you - not like that, but you - let's try it like this, and you try it at rehearsals. And then on stage - he can no longer tell you “Stop!” The course of today’s performance depends only on you - it all happens here and now.”

Rise of popularity

But the actress became truly famous after the release of the TV series “Karpov” and “Thirteen”. Interestingly, in the last film she got the role of a journalist who writes about supernatural phenomena, often getting into mystical troubles.

This project had a significant impact on the career of the young actress. Despite the fact that she does not believe in the supernatural, she always pays attention to signs. We have already written about some of them in the article. For example, when an actress sees that a car license plate has three identical numbers, she always makes a wish. And when the actress sees that a black cat has crossed her path, she intuitively grabs a button to avoid trouble. She also believes that in the Universe, in addition to people, there are other intelligent representatives. Namely, aliens. Really, why not? After all, space is huge.

Still from the film “Gordian Knot”

And in the romantic film “The Gordian Knot,” the girl got the role of the shy Anastasia, who was betrayed by her friend. She stole the beauty's boyfriend. A few years later, Nastya accidentally runs into her ex, and their feelings flare up again.

Another role of the actress is Nadezhda in the film “Gypsy Happiness.” This heroine has dedicated her life to a successful career and does not at all crave happiness in her personal life. However, having met the musician Ian, she reconsiders her views on life.

One of the latest series with Polyanskaya’s participation, “Loyalty,” was released in 2020 on the Rossiya TV channel. The heroine got the role of the girl Asya, who falls in love with her neighbor. A closed person who, moreover, is twice her age. The feeling really changes a girl’s life.

In 2020, the film “I’m on the same path with you” was also released about a girl named Nadezhda, who holds the position of administrator in a small provincial town. What happens is that as a result of a fight in the store where Nadya works, a display case with expensive alcoholic beverages is broken. The girl is obliged to compensate for the damage caused to the management of the outlet. But this is not so easy to do - now you have to trade at the market for a day and then work part-time as a nurse.

Moment from the series “I’m on the same path with you”

Everything changes when Nadya’s first patient appears in her life - a former pilot who becomes disabled as a result of an accident. By coincidence, it was this man who took part in the ill-fated fight in the store. The main characters face many trials, and as a result they understand that their meeting was not accidental.

In the movies, the heroines of actress Elena Polyanskaya are, as a rule, happy in their personal lives. We’ll find out further how the artist herself, whose photos adorn the Internet, is dealing with this area.

During her career, the actress managed to play in almost thirty projects - films and TV series. But the most interesting things, we are sure, await her ahead. Now the actress says that she would really like to play a bitchy heroine with a complex character. It is important for her to feel the role and understand the intricacies of the heroine’s character. When it is not clear where to start the game, this is very cool.

Movie

While still a student, Elena began acting in films. Her debut work was the series “Someone Is Here...” (2010). Then came the first leading role - in a 6-episode television film based on the novel by Yuri Polyakov “The Mushroom Tsar”. The young actress’s partners were Alexander Galibin, Alexander Kuznetsov, and Eduard Flerov.

In 2011, Elena Polyanskaya played another leading role, this time in the Turkish drama “September” (Eylul). And two years later, a new film produced in Turkey with the participation of Elena, “Farewell, Katya” (Elveda Katya), was released. In this film she starred together with another Russian actress Anna Andrusenko.

Fame came to Elena Polyanskaya after starring in the TV series “Karpov” and “13”. In the latter she plays photographer of the newspaper “13” Liza Tereshchenko. Editorial staff write about the supernatural and every now and then find themselves in mystical situations.

In the melodrama “The Gordian Knot” the actress appeared in the role of Nastya Makarova. According to the plot, a punchy school friend stole Maxim's fiancé from the modest, smart Nastya. Many years later, when everyone had their own lives, Nastya and Maxim meet by chance at the station and feelings flare up with renewed vigor.

Elena Polyanskaya has a completely different heroine in the film “Gypsy Happiness.” Nadya is a modern girl, an administrator of an elite restaurant. She lives only for her career, and she is not interested in love. And when fate pits her against the gypsy singer Ian, he causes her nothing but irritation.

In 2020, the premiere of the mini-series “Loyalty” took place on the Rossiya TV channel. Elena's heroine Asya fell in love with a strange and unsociable neighbor twice her age (Igor Bochkin), and this feeling changed her life. The film also starred Vadim Andreev, Natalya Batrak, Alexander Lobanov and others.

Polyanskaya’s first significant work was the film “The Mushroom Tsar,” which was created based on the book by Yuri Polyakov. The short artist (165 cm, while the girl weighs 50 kg) was approved for the role of the main character without auditioning instead of the performer, who suddenly fell ill. This incident played a positive role in Polyanskaya’s creative biography.

A year later, she was invited to a number of projects, among which the most popular series were “Karpov”, “Hot on the Trail”, “Without a Statute of Limitations”. The actress’s work in the joint Russian-Turkish films “September” and “Goodbye, Katya” turned out to be unusual.

Elena Polyanskaya starred in the TV series “Karpov”

In 2013, Polyanskaya starred in 7 films, of which she managed to play the main characters in two. First of all, this is the mystical film “13” about journalists engaged in unusual investigations. Elena's partner on the set was the artist Anton Feoktistov, who brilliantly played the role of a skeptical employee of the publication.

Great success accompanied the melodrama “Gypsy Happiness,” in which the girl Nadezhda, by coincidence, ends up in a gypsy camp and finds happiness there. Polyanskaya was remembered by viewers for her minor but striking role in the village detective story “The Beekeeper,” where she played along with Leonid Okunev and Anatoly Zhuravlev. Elena appeared in the serial drama “Juna” and in the melodramas “Trust Me” and “Gordian Knot”.

Trying to unravel the secret of her dacha neighbor, the girl unexpectedly falls in love with him, and the unsociable man’s heart gradually thaws. The series premiered in 2017 on Russian television.

Interview

About the profession:

“When I was little, I thought that actors were unearthly creatures, sort of super-humans. I still think that there is still something angelic in the actors, it’s not for nothing that both words start with “a”! But still, I highlight two qualities that, in my opinion, are necessary for an artist. The first is absolute, one hundred percent contamination by the profession. The second is hard work and efficiency.”

About acting traits:

“Before the release of a play, I always wear the same jeans. I never cut my hair before going on stage. There are rituals associated with certain performances. For example, when I played in Three Sisters, I always had a special bow in the first act. It’s impossible without him.”

About the desired role:

“I would like to try to play some kind of bitch, a negative heroine. But in general, one of my favorite films is “Breaking the Waves” by Lars von Trier and the heroine there is simply amazing. A little weird, that attracts me. This is the most interesting thing for an artist - when you don’t even know where to start.”
