“Actresses”: about actors and people

“Where have we been these eight years? We went to the opera, to the ballet. Well, not eight, six: the action in the series begins in 2014 and ends in 2020, so the pandemic becomes the last (extreme, as they say in such cases in cinema and theater) shock experienced by the heroes along with the country. And they didn’t “walk”, but existed there, in the opera, ballet, theater, because almost without exception, the characters of the series are actors. Or actresses.

The inspirer and producer of the project, Valery Todorovsky, said in an interview with Vedomosti that, after reading the script for the TV series Psycho, he suggested that the novice author Paulina Andreeva (starred in the TV series Thaw, 13th Clinical) write something for his studio. About what she knows best. And Paulina wrote about three actress friends. And about the theatre. After “Psycho”, with which the actress Andreeva made her debut in screenwriting, this is her second script for the series.
