Semyon's father was a serviceman. When the boy was born, Farada's family lived in Moscow. His biography began under the New Year, namely, on December 31, 1933. By the way, this is the real name of Semyon, not Farad, but Ferdman. Farada's father died when the children were still very young, so Mama was engaged in Semyon and his sister. She was very fond of her son, but, Farada's biography notes that he had a very restless and wayward character. Being an excellent pupil at school, the boy managed to constantly play pranks, get into fights, in general, do everything that always upsets loving moms.
But, nevertheless, not to get up Semyon, he could finish school with a gold medal. The guy began to choose what he wants from life. At that age, Farada did not think about art at all. He wanted to become like his beloved father, therefore, he submitted documents to the Armored Academy named after Stalin. But, everything was not as easy and simple as he wanted it to be. Of course, Semyon had excellent knowledge, but he needed high physical training and, at least, a second category in athletics. And with this, just the same and the problem came out. Therefore, the guy had to pick up the documents and think about choosing a profession not related to the military case.
Semyon was so upset that he just got on the tram and got off at the first stop, where there was an educational institution. The MVTU named after NI Bauman became such a high school. By the way, there did not particularly accept children who did not come from Russian families. However, Semyon Farada was able to do so. Of course, everything turned out not so simple. For example, the guy wrote an essay in which there were no mistakes at all, however, the examiner for some reason found in the text as many as eleven. But then the loving mother of Farada intervened, who was not going to put up with the fact that her son was discriminated against because of her nationality. She went to the Ministry of Education and made sure that her son's work was revised. That's how Semyon got to the power engineering faculty.
But, despite the fact that Semyon chose a profession that was in no way connected with the theater, the guy at that time was already attracted to art. He engaged in amateur groups, went to the shows. In fact, Farad sometimes even thought about going to the theater anyway. However, this thought was still not the main one and, in the end, he chose a different profession. And the theater that, still, always remained in his heart. During training the guy constantly participated in amateur performance. He was so fond of it that he began to skip classes. Of course, the teachers were not delighted with this. They even wanted to expel him and, suddenly, the guy was drafted into the army. And he had to serve in the Navy, where the service lasted for four years. It would seem that at this time it was possible to forget about art. But, not in the case of Farada. He got there on stage. Farada played on stage and even had the opportunity to wear long hair, unlike all other soldiers, because it was necessary for him to play a role.
After the end of the service, the guy returned to Moscow. He liked his performances so much that he received two letters of recommendation: for Raikin and Zavadsky. Even then, Farad could go to enter the theater or try to settle in some kind of theater. However, he and Mom discussed everything, and it was decided that the guy still finish his training. After this happened, Farad worked as a mechanical engineer for a while. But, even then he went to study in a variety school-studio at Moscow State University. Together with him, at that time such wonderful and talented people as Khazanov, Filippenko, Rozovsky, Filippov were trained.
When this theater studio was closed, Farad had to think about what he would do next. At that time Semyon was invited to the Moscow Concert and soon he became one of the winners of the contest of entertainers. Also, Semyon began to appear on television. At first it was a children's program "ABVGDeyka", where Farad depicted a nice and kind, but very sad clown Senya. Unfortunately, he did not work there very long, as his superiors simply did not like his eagle profile.
In 1972, Farad began to play at the Taganka Theater. It was on this scene that his best roles in the famous productions were played. Farad worked in this theater for thirty years and never once regretted that he had risen on his stage. After all, not only that the theater gave him the opportunity to reveal himself, as a talented and professional actor. It was there, at the Taganka Theater, that Semyon met his beloved woman.
By the way, Semyon Farada, before he came to Taganka, managed to marry twice, but his marriages were not happy. And then he met Mary Polizeymako, they got married and Misha's son was born to them. This marriage was long and happy. Farad never complained that he connected his life with this woman and believed that she really is his destiny.
Of course, Farada is not only a theatrical actor. All of us can contemplate it in many beautiful films. Such, for example, as "The very" Munchausen "," Presentiment of love "," Wizards "," Million in the marriage basket. " Farada played a lot of interesting and memorable roles, which remained in the hearts of fans forever.
When perestroika came into the country, and with it low-quality films, starring in a pair of them, Farada realized that he did not want to play this and left work. In addition, since 2000, he began to have health problems. Semyon suffered a stroke, after which he departed for a very long time, then there were fractures and other misfortunes. He was ill for a long time, but, next to Semyon, there always remained a wife, a son and many loyal and kind friends.
Semyon Farad died on the twentieth of August 2009.
