Not so long ago before the actresses often stood a cruel choice: either family life and motherhood or career. Natalia Lesnikovskaya, mother of two boys, never had to think if the children of the acting profession prevent.
- Natalia, on your example it turns out that the actress and children are the concepts compatible?
- Sure! In general, such a question seems to me irrelevant for our time. In addition to the world stars of cinema, which are successfully engaged in a career, having a huge family, can lead to the example of many Russian, which successfully combine work with large-scale. Glafira Tarkhanova, Olesya Zheleznyak, Katya Copanova, Masha Boltneva and many others. Even beautiful Irina Leonov, having seven children, continues to work in a small theater and film. Of course, in Soviet times the situation was the opposite, and I do not first know the tragic stories of actresses, who consciously chose a career instead of the family. It is wonderful that in our time, with such an abundance of film and theater projects, the actress can afford to fully realize himself and as a woman.

- Personally, was it difficult for you after giving birth to enter the form?
- It is not difficult, the question is only in motivation.
- What did you do during pregnancy?
- Since I had no mood to leave for a minute, I continued to play performances and starred almost to childbirth. By the lucky coincidence, one of the performances I played was "eight loving women." My heroine SUson came to the house to parents say that she is pregnant. It was very funny. In the first act, I needed to actively hide the stomach, and in the second it was directly emphasized by a suit to be visible to all the audience. It was even easier to the movies: directors had to shoot only large plans. (Laughs.) And if without jokes, I really liked this time, I managed to work out and voice acting films, and teaching acting to children. What I, by the way, was then useful.
- You always wanted children?
- Well, I'm a woman. No wonder girls play dolls, this is our natural purpose.
- And how many kids do you want?
- Hm I do not know. As much as possible. (Laughs.)

- Boys or girls?
- It does not matter at all. The specific character of the child is important. Here are my boys - Senior Yegor and Jr. Mark - Torvants, both with difficult characters. But with them very interesting.
- What are you happy, what is upset?
- They just please. The fact of what they are. The rest is all the details. Egor, Egor, is such an intellectual and introvert. Jr., Mark, - Master of Communication, Sidere and Hohutun.
- What talents do you see them?
- The senior was transferred to the talents of my relatives on the maternal line - he has very good abilities for mathematics and languages. What, unfortunately, I have no. And the youngest is very artistic, smart, loves to command others, can even make everyone. Artist, in one word. But I hope that by profession the artist will not. Not easy it share.
"But from the outside it seems that you only flute through life, go to the red carpet tracks, attend festivals and presentations, shoot in advertising for big money.
"Of course, in my profession it is possible to have both tremendous earnings, and live in poverty, while being busy every day in the theater. There is an artist, like a wolf, "feet feed." But even in any other profession is not easy. Everywhere its specificity. And, I am sure to work somewhere in the office nothing easier. But if you love your work, then all this becomes not important.
- Have you ever spare about the chosen path?
- Never.
- If the youngest will still decide to become an actor, you will not let him in the chosen path?
- I will not impede anything at all. What do they want, let them do. The main thing is that it was joy.
"Through conflicts in the family, children learn to interact in society"
- Some parents are stubbornly grow, for example, hockey player so that he then earn a lot of money. Life is put on this.
- Ltd! This is a separate layer of parents who direct all their strength to help her child become a champion or a movie star. I bow to their self-dedication. Probably, it is with such an approach that you can achieve something. I, unfortunately, not so. Or not unfortunately. To each his own.
- I heard that at the last recently the first congress of the International Children's Congress, you conducted master classes ...
- I was very interested to hold a master class on acting. Just useful my teaching experience during the decree. My sons were for the first time and my students. Time flew unnoticed, we played all sorts of acting games and were trained, which students are doing in the first year of the Theater Institute.
- Your sons already know who they want to be?
- While the ideas about professions are completely children's, such as "I want to be a firefighter or police," but the benefit now so many opportunities to try yourself in different directions that you can not worry about it. We often go to the city of professions, there the child can try himself as a postman, an oilman, a builder, a journalist, a radio host, artist, culinary, to visit the chocolate factory, to be a pilot on the plane. That's even upset that I am not a child. (Laughs.)
- Do you take them with you on the set or festivals?
- On the set, they have nothing to do. It would be wrong and in relation to the film crew. In the theater, I, of course, were, and more than once. Senior I really like to watch performances from behind the scene, and then run and watch them from the hall. Surprisingly funny and accurate comments about the productions I sometimes hear from it. In general, I try to often visit them from different children's performances, in puppet theaters, on children's ballet productions, in the circus. And their impressions sometimes do not coincide with mine at all. That is, some simple statement can be very memorized, and vice versa, they can yawn on the famous circus show "Circus du Soleil". They have both favorites. In our theater, the CDR is a performance "School School". So they looked at him four times and want more.
- You will soon be expected premiere, what?
- Now I am going at the box office "I am not like that, I'm not like that," the series "Hero on call" will soon be released, where I play a prosecutor with a steel character, seeing an antagonist of the gentle heroine of Christina Asmus. And most importantly, what I am busy are now, this is the rehearsal of the play "Double" on Dostoevsky in the stage and director Andrei Eshpaya.
Personal life Actresses are now connected with a young man, whose name is Nikolay
- How do you like to spend the summer?
- Usually ask children to which country they would like to go. Then we appreciate the reality of this journey regarding their age. Recently visited China on the island of Hainan. Children were very interesting to plunge into an unfamiliar culture. They incredibly liked folk chinese dances and costumes. They immediately demanded that they bought Chinese hats, and packed them everywhere. They learned one word in Chinese - Nikhao (hence - Hello), and with everyone they greet everyone. I think the most important thing is that children from the trip are an understanding of how people live in different ends of the world. They saw poverty and dirt and, on the contrary, the luxury of Chinese cities. In addition to the simple rest and fruit comes, of course, it is important through travel to learn more about our planet and people.
- What are your favorite directions?
- We have no favorite destinations, in the world so many interesting places that we are still far from come to the already felling. While the most vivid impressions in children from Bali. They say it's just a paradise. We will try such places to be as much as possible in their lives.
- What should be done in the family so that the children grow friendly?
- Difficult question. Of course, without conflicts between them it does not do. And I understand that it is inevitable. Through conflicts in the family, children learn to interact in society. Of course, I constantly remind them that they are brothers and the closest people to each other. I tell you, for example, with my brother in childhood all the time conflict, and now we are the most native people.
- Sons are proud of your mom?
- It always seemed to me that they were still doing what I do. Well, the actress and actress. And even coming to me on performances, they did not express their attitude towards what I am doing. But once, I accidentally heard their children's conversations with peers and was very surprised when I realized that they were proudly talking about me. Still, it is important that the children are proud of you. Yes! (Laughs.)
